life paintings
statement

 

The new series of flowers conveys the impact that one’s life, no matter how temporary or fragile, can make on others. Each bloom is unique and intricate, yet frail and impermanent. The title of each piece is the birth date (and death date in some cases) of an individual whose beautiful existence is represented by the work.
