Art Description:

Painting: Oil on Canvas.

This extract from ‘Trial by Existence’ by poet Robert Frost is where it all began…
“The light of heaven falls whole and white
And is not shattered into dyes…”

As

the shapes began to emerge into angel and demon like creatures I began

to think about Angels as messengers of god, intermediaries between

heaven and earth and how artistic portrayals have evolved over time.

Our

world is founded on good and evil. There is a powerful need to

understand good and evil and to know whether our world is controlled by

gods and goddess, animals, the sun, every single human on earth or

nothing at all.

It’s about personal perspective and views into foundations of government and religion.

“I turned to speak to God
About the world’s despair
But to make bad matters worse
I found God wasn’t there.”
-Robert Frost

Artists

have grabbed hold of these abstract principles and interpreted them in

many ways from Fra Angelico, Pieter Bruegel to William Blake.

My

work is about challenging perspective and searching for an alternate

view to understand circumstance in order to create change.

“Our minds sometimes see what our hearts wish were true.”
