This expressionist painting is based on the archetype of the twins or lovers, opposites that make up a whole, or the two sides of self or psyche. The two whisper to each other in sleep, an unfurling wave of energetic connection to each other and to all being. Twins, In Utero, or lovers, absorbed in You Terra or the self, asleep, in dialogue with itself. Combining intuitive freestyle painting in a process art approach with washes and dripwork, followed by impressionist style detail that creates movement and story, the artwork is an example of contemporary, semi-abstract figurative expressionism. Colour palette is bright and bold, including metallic copper, fluros and lemon yellow. The painting is on stretched canvas, ready to hang.
