Available now to view at Cowes Gallery, Isle of Wight, UK.
This tells my story of where I am currently in life.
The two apples falling away represent my children leaving home. The lonely apple is me. Left on the shelf.
A paper boat as I don’t sail. The goldfish who constantly sees the sea but never actually gets to go in. I now rarely drink but still see it as an important social element. The bird wondering how to fly and the plant needing to grow in a different way now.
And of course if anyone knows who Bob Ross is.. There’s a happy little cloud :)
There’s an obvious nod to Rene Magritte, especially as his pieces also had a narrative element that wasn’t always obvious to the viewer.
Oil painted in glazes on a canvas panel. Varnished and set within a bespoke white tray frame.
35.8 × 28.3 × 0.5 cm - Unframed
49 × 41.5 × 3.8 cm - Framed
Signed on the front and signed and dated on the back.
