This painting is part of an ongoing body of work, The Little Things, is the process of my recovery from CPTSD - my concerted effort to take note of the things that bring beauty, joy and intrigue to my world in order to rekindle a passion for creating art. In playful, yet somber, applications of layers and mark making, I indulge the world’s small absurd joys. By cartooning and abstracting them, I distills the feeling of intrigue they create in me.
