My glass is full

My inspiration for this work came from my positive view of life. The glass in this work is overflowing with flowers ~ bright, free flowing flowers. The flowers are not perfect and some appear to be moving across the canvas which represents the constant change of life. The glass is also sitting on the side of a hill which depicts the sometimes hard climbs or challenges facing everyone at some stage.

Full of mark-making and texture, it fills one with hope and happiness. Life is good if we only look hard enough.
