This piece began it’s life as part of a public performance, I was painting large PVC billboards with spray cans on the street in Whanganui, I cropped and stretched this section and finished it in Oils.

The reference for this painting was a photo of my Daughter Anna, the photo was so beautiful, like I could see her grown into an adult, she does this too me all the time. I started painting her eyes and mouth, the areas in between became an inner landscape filled with symbols and imagery rising up through the subconscious.
