Gratitude to Magda Davitt (Sinéad O'Connor) for her beautiful song Love Is Ours, which I listened to on repeat while painting this. This is my self portrait, at one, four, eleven and sixteen years old. This is me growing through and out of my childhood, as we all must, with all the traumas and adaptations that make us who we are. And with love for those who carried me through and still do. Love is ours.
This 8-panel painting is currently on display at the Silk Purse Gallery in West Vancouver during the Harmony Arts Festival.
I'll be doing a YouTube livestream talk with the curator and other fabulous artists this evening, July 31, from 7-8pm.
