Gilded Ghosts
In this series, it is my intent to visually express the unity of pattern and the anatomy of death. Each piece is oil on canvas and embellished with liquid and/or leaf gilding sheets/flakes. The imagery in each painting represents an individual fate with the inevitable while the title of each painting illuminates the mythological stories each are based upon. Each piece includes a geometric pattern/shape that depicts aspects within each piece of lore. Creating this collection fuses my love for both art & literature and I am currently expanding my portfolio with additions to this series with works in progress. A synopsis about each painting is provided below.
