The Freedom Series
This new 2019 body of work is all about energy, movement and freedom. Combining sweeping abstract brushstrokes and realistic bird paintings, it is my hope that the energy and love I have poured into these paintings comes across, and they are viewed as joyful and uplifting. In this series, they are less about the specific birds and more about the act of flying and the freedom and joy that I imagine it to feel like.
There is a more detailed story about how this new series came to be which I have written about in my blog post here.
They will be available for sale soon, and if you are interested in pre-ordering any of these original paintings, please feel free to get in touch for details.
