About The Artwork
I thought about naming this painting “Narcissus” [does everyone know that Narcissus is latin for Daffodil? Or Daffodil is english for the genus “Narcissus”?] – but Narcissus has it’s own connotations, being named after a mythological greek who couldn’t get enough of his own reflection. So this woman is the opposite of Narcissus. This woman managed to maintain a contented smile for the whole time I was drawing her. She’s a lovely person, and looking at my drawing, I felt she looked like a daffodil, in the way that she glows sunshine (Sunshine is stored in daffodils’ bulbs, ready to break out in sunny glory in spring!). She’s looking sunny daffodils out of her eyes. So I named her the friendly familiar version of Daffodils: “Daffs”. Drawn and painted in enduring acrylic inks and paint, on a cradled wooden panel, this piece is 49.5 x 39.5cm, and about 1cm deep with a white-painted edge. Ready to hang.

I have always made art in various ways, and earlier in my art career I focused on modern sculpture, often made with soft materials. One of the drawbacks of sculpture is that the use of colour is complicated, but now I love to use interesting colour in my painting, whether to render a life-like reproduction of a person, insect, plant or landscape, or to make a bold statement in my "message" pieces. I love the quality of the ancient medium of paint, both oils and watercolours. I also love to observe and draw the world around me.. there's so much to see, and point out!
