I'm excited to introduce my latest piece, "The Departure," a 36 x 36 inch work crafted with acrylic and enamel. This abstract and vibrant composition features three stylized figures, with the central figure sporting blonde hair and raised arms, creating a beautiful symmetry. These figures are surrounded by dynamic geometric patterns and circular motifs, all set against a rich backdrop of browns, pinks, purples, and oranges. This piece draws inspiration from the moment when a young person is ready to leave the security of home and explore the wider world. I invite you to take a closer look at the intricate details and feel the spirit of adventure and independence captured within this artwork. Let me know what stories or emotions it evokes for you.
The Departure
She knows she must leave now
For the calling is strong
And she’s bound and determined
For she knows she’s not wrong
Because there’s a world that awaits her
Far different from her norm
But she’ll emerge from her innocence
In self-confident form
Although her guardians are concerned
They’ve nurtured her since birth
They understand she must leave them
To create her own worth
But forever they’ll be there
She’ll never be alone
Sending their love and their smiles
Will carry her through the unknown
