'let's pour it all out' gouache & pencil painting
A detailed painting in gouache, watercolor, and pencil exploring the things we share with each other when in relationship.
This painting features a couple (friends, lovers, partners, family) at the top of the piece having an intimate moment, leaning into each other. They pour out between them memories, experiences, and vulnerabilities, which are represented by drawings of psychic animals, plant life, the body, and designed abstract elements. The night sky is contrasted with the bright daytime sun and air coming through the open window in the corner of the painting. There is a circular motion to the piece, as things are shared and dumped out, moving down and up to the right, and out the window - released, and bringing the people closer together.
An intriguing, calming, lovely painting to hang in a space where you always like to discover new details and come to new conclusions about symbolism in the piece, and maybe in your own life. Do animals hold special wisdom for you? Do plants hold symbolism or meaning in your life? What forms do your memories take?
20x16” gouache, watercolor, and pencil on archival watercolor paper, sealed for longevity and signed by the artist.
