Hope and Circumstance
FEATURED in Visions 2017 "Food For Thought" Invitational Exhibition, Sechrest Art Gallery at High Point University
AWARDED FIRST PLACE DRAWING at the 2016 SilverArts Exhibition and Sale in Wilmington, NC
2016
Colored pencil on Strathmore mixed media board
Included: slim wood frame with 4" white mat under heavy-duty Plexiglass.
"Hope and Circumstance" represents hope... my belief that when things go awry, the momentum of God and nature can bring us back to health and wholeness. The imagery is composed of thousands of small pencil strokes, resulting in desirable richness and complexity. Among the autobiographical references is the large central ameba-like shape which is a tracing (of the trunk cross-section) of my childhood climbing tree.
