In my collection of art, I embarked on a journey of reimagination, taking simple but iconic characters as my starting point and then setting them adrift in a sea of "What if" questions. My process was far from linear; each character underwent numerous iterations as they took the reins, ultimately guiding the narrative in unexpected directions. Through many layers of paint, this cast of characters tried on various "costumes" of resilience, tenderness, and humor, ultimately settling into versions of themselves that felt authentic and compelling. I’m delighted to present these reimagined heroines and to learn about their next chapters as they make their way out into the world.
Introducing The Frog Princess:
Oh, I just love where this pair ended up! I was contemplating what would happen if the Princess decided not to kiss the frog in the end.
Perhaps she wasn’t seeking a prince after all but instead really longed for a pet frog?
Or maybe she was really more of a hugger?
Was she was already smitten with the little green prince, just the way he was?
During the course of the creation of this painting, their expressions and postures changed multiple times until they landed here in this moment. The contrast of their individual experiences just cracks me up. Love is certainly a twisty-turny adventure - full of moments of sweetness …and trepidation.
