More examples of works in progress.



The painting on the easel is a work in progress. I have included here a photo of the next stage the work has been expanded to. The recording of the works in progress helps keep me from hanging onto parts of the works that may be precious, but may not be useful. I have made the girl's hair longer and made changes to the face. There are several more layers of paint on the one with brown hair.

There is a black and white canvas behind that one that has also been updated and each one of the canvases (red, blue, yellow) next to that are now paintings.



I am currently working on a series of works that describe methods of escape. The women in each image will be holding an object that allows them to be free. This girl is holding a pencil. She is writing her way out.

Each of these represents someone who is opressed by something, poverty, religious ideology, societal expectations, etc.
