Beauty In Waking

This artwork attempts to capture the moments of vulnerability we see in waking. There is a tenderness in moments like this, before any make up is applied or hair is done, we see a figure wrapped in blankets in one of these moments...to me these moments are beautiful, raw and real. In a world of social media, filters and the quest for perfection moments like this are rare. Don't forget the beauty that lies under all of that, in the real, in the flawed and human. I think we all should value those moments more, real beauty.

I find that my art enables me to express elements of my world that can't necessarily be seen by the naked eye, its an attempt at conveying something a bit intangible. Abstraction is the primary way I communicate my ideas and experiences in art.
The naive and somewhat primitive lines, shapes, colours and textures I use are my attempt at capturing the atmosphere, personality or feeling of a place or person I have encountered in my life, realism or a photograph in my opinion doesn't always capture these elements of the world.
I feel that my art brings these to the surface...it shows the soul of something, somewhere, or someone. Perhaps you will see someone you know within my strange works, maybe even yourself.
