A portrait of esteemed S.A artists and educators Julia Robinson and Roy Ananda, at home with their cat Chewy, and another guest.
Inspired by elements of mythology, folklore and world building in both their practices, as well as their interest in HP Lovecraft and Dungeon and Dragons, the tentacle in this painting becomes a stand in for all the complexity, talent and power that I associate with Julia and Roy. The guest in their home is not this elemental force, it is us, the viewer; allowed a brief glimpse into an intimate world and a creative partnership.
