Work I had a feral child. She cared more for the pain
of the world than she could bear Some knew her
as the Girl in the Green Coat. Each painting in
this series incorporates remnants of her green
coat. Family Constellations speaks to how our
ancestors experiences and traumas can affect future
generations.
Composed of old family papers and the lining of
the green coat, the patches and textures represent
the culmination of our ancestors old wounds and
experiences that contribute to our psyche.
The colorful background trails represent the
threads of ancestral spirits that contribute to the
fabric of who we are. All Ways has 20 patches of the
green coat equating to the Angel #20 which reminds
us to be diplomatic, considerate and kind to others.
The four sides of the square are symbolic of the four
elements, earth, fire, water and air and ground us
here in the physical realm.
ALL WAYS
Here on earth, everyone is fighting a battle you ENCAUSTIC ON
know nothing about. Be Kind. All Ways. CRADLED PANEL
