About The Artwork

This painting was created over the course of three days (Nov. 21, 22, 23, 2017) as part of a competition sponsored by Liquitex, an acrylic paint company, for the release of their Cadmium-free paint colours. The title is a portion of a quote taken from Tolstoy's "War and Peace", attributed to Napoleon, and encapsulates the range of subjects covered in the painting quite well. A simple, white, front-loading frame is included with the painting, which allows for some of the details on the sides of the painting surface to still be seen. A satin, UV protectant varnish has been applied and hanging hardware is already attached to the back of the work.

Rather than having a single style of repeated works, I prefer to have a large group of themes, ideas and styles to draw from which I periodically re-visit, and which will continually grow, evolve and influence each other, leading to new interests over the course of my lifetime. I take a very long-term approach to art creation, seeing the scope of my past, present and planned future work all together, and how it will all be unified at the end of my life into a cohesive whole. I feel that approaching art in this way keeps my work fresh, and helps it to be less repetitive and formulaic than if I were to work in the same style for long periods of time, repeating the same motions and artwork over and over. This decision echoes my feeling that life is a long series of learning adventures in which we examine our surroundings and turn them inside-out to study and interpret them, then show others what we have learned from the experience.
