“Hollow Hills”

2011

Duncan, BC

28″ x 36″ Acrylic on 3/4″ Canvas

This painting was done during the unhappiest time of my life, along with the “Summer Thistle Series” and “Entangled”.  Only upon reflection I realized how the works created at this time subconsciously expressed my feelings.  My dark period.  I added black to all my pigments used to create those paintings and the words used in the painting titles…thistle, hollow, entangled.  All words relevant to the unpleasant situation I found myself enduring.
