Jimi
I made this special original piece on the evening of a bright yellow full moon, which is why the background is painted yellow. I added an image of Jimi Hendrix, one of dad’s favorite guitarists as the focal point and then used a brush to add color and dimension. Jimi Henrix once said, “When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.” This piece represents the power of love and is sure to be the focal point of any room.

Forever
Forever is the twin piece to Be Mine. It was also made with glow in the dark pink paint, that allow it to completely glow under blacklights giving it a completely different vibe with different lighting. Forever was made by first using acrylic paint on the background and then I added multiple layers of jewels, hearts and butterflies. The butterflies represent change and transformation, hope and positivity. This piece was made with love oozing from my heart. It is a reminder that love is the ultimate victory. As Meryl Streep said so poignantly, My own sense of well-being and purpose in the world. That comes from studying the world feelingly, with empathy in my work. It comes from staying alert and alive and involved in the lives of the people that I love and the people in the wider world who need my help. I agree. This piece will be signed prior to shipping.

Lady Butterfly
This was one of the first pieces I ever made and was finished in 2020. I used an image of Marilyn Monroe, one of my favorite muses as the primary image in the background and then used acrylic paint to layer it with various colors. I painted it during the time my father was losing his battle with cancer, which was obviously a difficult period in my life. I used my hands to paint handprints all over it and wanted her to look like she was coming out of the painting. Marilyn once said, “Sometimes things fall apart, so that better things can fall together.” This piece represents how struggle creates strength. When you see a caterpillar struggling to break free from its cocoon, wiggling and shaking, one would be tempted to help it by cutting it out. What I learned is that if you cut it out, it would not have the strength to become a butterfly since the struggle is part of the metamorphosis where it eventually becomes a butterfly. This is a vibrant piece with so much soul. It is framed and will be signed prior to shipping.
