Embracing Your Fears in Pink Ribbons




This is a 24x24 oil on linen. I think it is quite creepy, but not because of the reason you might think. To me, this painting is about embracing, or facing ones fears. That has always frightened me. I think that in order to be able to do this, we have to have trust in ourselves and faith that it will be ok, which is why I put the girl in pink ribbons... the trust of a child. The girl representing the fear is holding an 8 ball, showing how no one really knows how things are going to turn out.

I dont normally explain my art. See? We never know how things will turn out!

Hope you like it! Prints will be available soon...
