A series about fear, with darkness being a metaphor for change, difference, low confidence, bad things in life and general states of fear and anxiety. These paintings are about change, movement, brightness, being hopeful and opening up to possibilities despite our fears.
In this painting thinking of those times growing up when change was part of everyday life; growth was summer skies, freedom to roam, time for adventures and mishaps; for magic and imagination and risky explorations.
I AM NOT AFRAID OF THE DARK
I Am Not Afraid Of The Dark / It is full of remembered symmetries that have slid through smooth spaces, over fallen rocks and buoyed on tidal races.
I Am Not Afraid Of The Dark / It echoes with the murky depths of life, whose battles for survival are mingled in the dirt trodden by multiples.
I Am Not Afraid Of The Dark / Infinite possibilities emerge as startling realisations of future opportunities whose radiance shines bright with the light of living.
