Family a Tapestry of a Thousand Tiny Threads


This figurative abstract is a piece inspired by the queen's 25th wedding anniversary speech.  Family a tapestry of a thousand tiny threads is so beautifully descriptive and exudes love and warmth.  I reworked this so  many times until arriving at this place where I finally felt satisfied.  When a piece comes totally out of your head with very few references, it is a great challenge.

 Fings Ain't Wot They Used T'Be


This painting was inspired by an early 1960 British musical entitled Fings Ain't Wot They Used T'Be.  It is an apt comment on how our world has changed in the last year and the abstraction is appropriate me thinks.  I reclaimed a furniture store wall decor piece with frame that was also refinished.  Fun to do, but I feel like such a vandal painting over it...ha!
