Original artwork description:

This is a mixed media painting on stretched canvas. It reflects a season of grieving in my life....where it felt like there was so much metaphorical death. And yet even in this dark time, I felt there was hope and a residue of beauty. I painted this over an old painting and I like how some of this is apparent in the layers; how even that speaks of the repurposing of old things into new things....that cycle of new hope.

Materials used:

Acrylic paint, paper, crayon and pastel on wood panel
