Story / Additional InfoAn abstract painting that began with a collage with the artist putting the finishing touches on with oils painted on board. A face is barely discernible, as if it is surfacing from a pool of water or coming into focus. There is also a hint of a bird on the left hand side, an accidental creation. The artist was working with shapes and textures and the overall mood is of transmutation or personal evolution.
