The Reader at Rest. Diptych

I like thinking of quiet moments shared between people from time to time. I think it's because I long for them in some way, this is a thought I had some years ago about myself and my partner growing old together.
I like the idea of a moment like the one you see before, sharing one another's company in a quiet and peaceful way.
I think we all long for this.

NOTE: this artwork is a diptych with each canvas framed and ready to hang. the displayed measurements are the combined total of both paintings.

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.
