The Beginning (3).png

Artwork: The Beginning

Medium: Oil on linen with captain white gold and silver leaf

Dimensions: 16" x 26" x 2"

Description: "The Beginning" was painted at the beginning of the pandemic, with all the worries, the fears and the isolation that we all had to endure, in unprecedented times. We were introduced to a time when, due to human life being restricted so very severely, that nature seemed to take back some of what had been stolen. I hoped to portray, in this artwork a sense of decay and loss, yet install a feeling of hope and rebirth. It was painted over a course of three months, whilst homeschooling my children (one of whom is the model of this piece) with many thin layers of oil paint, and with gilding completed at several stages throughout the piece.

Medium: Oil on canvas

Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way.
