"Samantha Finds Herself at the End of Her Rope"

Original acrylic paintings on wooden box panel. It's ready to hang by the attached picture wire on the back. The dimensions are: 11" x  8.5" x 1"

Each of my paintings is a collection of under paintings. I build up layers of paint and texture before I introduce a figure. This provides a rich backdrop for the image to live on. It also helps me to mentally prepare for the story I'm about to tell.

The symbols I use create a pictorial language that I share with my audience. Each piece is a unique expression of my response to my inner world and the world around me.
