She had butterflies. - Sold!

Thanks to all who inquired about the work.
I will be posting the next work, next Thursday.

She had butterflies.

This work needs a little explanation; the work ends at the edge of the photograph but the butterflies hang freely from the photograph - meaning there isn't any white paper under the photograph as it might seem from this image.

Found photographs, acrylic paint, found paper and purple string
9.5 x 34.5 cm

38 Tears of Joy - Sold

The first work in this year long project '38' has been purchased!
But stay tuned for next Thursday's posting!

38 Tears of Joy

Found photos, Acrylic, Found photo sleeve from a photo album
18.5 x 27.5 cm

Welcome to 38.

In recognition of my 38th birthday, I will be posting a work for sale every Thursday for the sum of 38 Dollars or Euros.

I was born on June 14th. In America this date coincides with Flag Day, something which I was quite proud of as a kid.

For me, birthdays have become sort of bittersweet; the celebration of my personal new year and then of course realizing I am one year older. As I get older I am constantly taking stock of my standing in life; where my career is, my love life, my health and my financial standing. I never thought I would be where I am and doing what I am doing at this age.

This project is an attempt at checking in with my self, my work and considering these ideas in concert with my 38th year.

I'm looking forward to this year.
