About The Artwork
“Grief” – Pastels on Paper “Grief” was created from a moment when I was looking through a LIFE magazine that showed David Kirby, an AIDS activist, who was on his deathbed surrounded by his grieving family. The father cradled his son’s head while weeping knowing that his son would soon no longer be with him. The mother cradles his sister while watching her son pass on. What caught my attention was the expression on David’s face. It appears that he is already transcending, he has had time to come to terms with his death and is now finding peace in that which none of us can avoid. I wanted to show David contained in shapes that had a vibrant glow to suggest his peace with death. His family surrounding them are the ones who will still feel the earthly pain of losing a loved one.

Life is fluid and so is the body of artwork. The creative journey has taken me through surrealism, fantasy and abstract. My creative process is based on curiosity and the desire to challenge the way we perceive our world. Digging deeper into my imagination and exploring the possibilities while sharing those ideas with the community. My work is heavily inspired by Salvador Dalí who was the first artist I came across at the age of sixteen. He represented the “other world”. This world was intriguing and I desired to create art that wasn’t representational. The creative journey still continues...........
