Amazons and Angels

Amazons and Angels
I love this painting. It’s based on a piece of driftwood I found several years ago (see my Web site), and captures the tension between fear and desire inherent in any relationship that threatens our sense of ourselves. It also attempts to reconcile the conflict by intimating the power of sex to unify. It was in a show called “Ghosts” where I explored the forces of myth, religion and history in shaping our consciousness.
