Semblance

Semblance series 2018.  This series was looking at hidden pain and emotion beneath a calm and tranquil exterior.  Yoga and mindfulness is sold through images of calm and beautiful people. As a yogi and meditator my experience of these practices is that beneath the surface all kinds of weather can be brewing - lots of it unpleasant, and the art is to accept it and give it space to play out.  Semblance is an interpretation of this, some paintings have scar like marks others have colours breaking through from beneath. These things enhance the otherwise bland exterior and make each one unique.
