Mask
Oil on Canvas
18” x 24”
Mask is a self portrait, like many of my pieces, but this painting represents a full return to self, a restoration. A paint-over of a previous piece, one painted during a tumultuous time, Mask retained many of the original elements, but with new purpose.
Despite my recent infatuation with red, I’ve always truly seen myself as a blue individual. Reminiscent of the ocean and water I have always been obsessed with, and a personality to match, blue feels very soulful for me.
Weep for one lost, another found. Become great with each crashing wave scolding stone, and sharp cut. He is seen, we all are, but the price was great. To embrace your love is a gift above all, remember it fondly.
