Sitting Sallies

This series of mixed media paintings was born of a figure first created in a piece called Planet, executed with conte crayons. The simple shape of a meditating human being visited me during pandemic induced confinement, and soon imposed itself as a recurring figure in my work, addressing the need to pause and think about the future of our planet, our communities, the need to acknowledge each other, past and present, to face the future of our common fate with as much grace as possible.
