'Tis An Omen! Painting

A blind ogre-like figure stands naked in a field at night, whilst a monk-like figure offers him food and drink upon a tray. With his other hand the monk points at a shaft of light emanating towards them from the heavens, as if this is some kind of premonitory sign. Of course, the ogre cannot see the light, or the food and drink he is being offered and stays fixed to the spot. In this vulnerable state (naked and blind) he is at the mercy of the monk, who acts as his eyes, telling him of the eerie light that bathes them. At the edge of the painting we see just the edge of a single building. Has the ogre wandered blindly away from his home and found himself lost, or is this the home of the monk? Maybe it has nothing to do with either of them? Power, vulnerability, tenderness and dependency are the main themes of this work. Created over the period 2013-2015.
