Twilight


This painting was inspired by the love i have for nature, and the calm that i have found within myself.

In this painting the sunrise was done to reflects the calm felt, and also the start or something new to come. The landscape is to represents change and personal growth not only within myself but also with my three children.

Soaring


This painting was inspired by my son Cephas after a bad experience he had been through at school. After speaking of what had happened he decided to let his anger go and rise above what had happened.

I used the sunset to reflect how at peace he had felt after talking about it. The landscape reflects change in himself and the people around him. Lastly, I added two birds to represent Cephas and myself soaring above the troubles he faced and dealt with so beautifully.
