Hollow Scars



One I've been working on for a little while.

It's an emotional piece, and evident that I was working through/expressing things in my past. There is something very liberating about making them, and if I was communicating with my mom at this point, it would just feel great to let her see it and tell her that this is what happens when I think of my life with her. I don't think any other words would be needed.

Think of some adjectives that you think describe the feel of this painting, and you've probably summed up quite well how I felt and still feel regarding her.

I guess that's the beauty of getting it out on canvas..sometimes it can say more than you could ever put into words.

Some of it reminds me of cuttings. If you have never heard the term, it is when people use razors to intentionally cut themselves. Many teenage girls actually do it.
