"Persephone"

"Persephone", 36x60", acrylic on canvas. My experience of being married very young is here symbolized by the myth of Persephone, who dwelt in the underworld, a captive of Hades, until her mother negotiated to have her released half of each year. Persephone ate a pomegranate seed while visiting the underworld, and that mistake caused her imprisonment. The 3-headed dog Cerberus guards the underworld, but lets her pass at the beginning of spring and fall.

"The Man With the Orange Face"

"The Man With the Orange Face", 2015, acrylic on canvas, 60x36". A dream image that combined a drunken man with an orange face, laughing and falling down as he followed me away from a carnival. I have two creatures on my body that resemble the mechanical crawfish in The Matrix; I am trying to keep them from entering my body.
