"Metamorphosis"

2/2008

24 X 48

Oil on Canvas

Here we go, the beginning of a new series, this always feels good! This piece was a tester that I am pleased with! The tweeks will come in the next paintings. I plan to go 48 X 48 and then perhaps 48 X 60! The thought behind this series, "Metaphorical Metamorphosis" is dealing with the generational differences we are adapting to or adapted to or are yet to come into the evolution of adaption. For instance, sexual identity, sexual preference, race, mixing of races, powerful women, transexuals, etc. the way our world is changing and this combination of different people and different backgrounds. It is a beautiful collage in my mind and therefore must be appreciated on canvas. My goal is to express to the world what a wonderful evolution this is and how we can embrace all the differences in everyone, regardless of their lifestyle choices.
