A Breath Of Fresh Air 2021 Watercolor acrylic 17” x 11”
Relief isvery important to life. Without relief we get anxiety. This painting is underwater because when I exhale underwater I feel like the anxiety is being sucked out. I made this piece to bring “light” to the importance of relief.
The Great Decline 2021 Mixed media canvas 20” x 18”x 5”
This piece depicts a shadow walking up stairs, as the stairs get higher and more difficult the books grow. Eventually the character falls down and hits the floor. The rip symbolizes how as we spiral we start to perceive the world differently. Mental health is important to me, I noticed as I was making this piece students’ mental health was affected by their work. I made this work to express how school can affect children.
