TRINIDAD

I am half Trini. My dad still lives there and I wanted to paint something that addressed that part of me.

So I based this on the colours in a red throated hummingbird as it is the national bird.

50 x 70 cms in acrylic I am quite happy with it.

It is for sale.

Not All Women

This one is already sold but I really liked it and proper enjoyed painting it so thought I would include it on this blog. It is called Not All Women as having a vagina isn't the criteria for womanhood.

I really enjoyed playing with depth and shape using colour and brush strokes and will be fun to paint more vaginas!

Peacock One Two and Three

I got an actual commission for a thing! This was very exciting to me and off I went. The client wanted something in a Rothko type style in peacock colours.

I painted four in the end. These ones are for sale. You can buy them separately or I will do a discount for a job lot. 40x50 cm in acrylic.

This is Peacock One. I like that the squares are off kilter. I wanted it to encompass the eye in a peacock's feather without it being a faithful representation of one.

I purposefully used a lower grade brush for Peacock Two as I wanted some shedding to stay on the painting to represent feathers.

Peacock Three is just plain pretty. I like it very much.
