Figurative 2010, 2011
I've been experimenting with the idea of combining abstract with figure in a series of work and this is an early result. The trick for me is to avoid having the piece come out looking either too commercial or too trite, like a painting with feathers, different scaled faces and a howling wolf in the background, i.e. something that belongs on a beach towel.
