Artist's Comments
"These tears I've cried
I've cried a thousand oceans and if it seems I'm floating in the darkness, well, I can't believe that I would keep, keep you from flying and I would cry a thousand more if that's what it takes to sail you home." Tori Amos, from '1000 Oceans' This was originally going to be called 'Where do all the Tears go', as that phrase kept going round in my head for some reason, but as I was finishing this painting the song A Thousand Oceans started playing in my mind and it gave me the shivers when I realised just how much it seemed to fit the 'stuff' I was exploring. So, thank you Tori, and hope you don't mind  I owe a huge amount of gratitude to the beautiful Jessica  who made the most beautiful stock photo that leapt out at me months ago - I just knew that was the one I needed for this painting! I have never used stock before, but when I saw her work how could I not! I think there may be more to come too! So, thank you so much  Oil and acrylic on canvas, 130cm x 80cm |
