Description Watercolour on paper

Playing with some punchier colour schemes. This piece is quietly about fears and anxiety – reaching to stay above while continually being pulled under.Β 

For some reason it turned out a little bit Moroccan or something, haha. I like that.

I really been loving these colors lately, they really pop in person. I came across this in Creationarium group gallery. Nice to see something with a little substance. I like how you capture the anxiety of the holidays in modernity.

LOL. One of the Rare days that I break my silence and comment on a piece. I still love the concept! Anxiety is the best way to describe our modern era if you can't learn to swim. trying to maintain a culture in sea of spreading americanism. however freedom from what our ancestors taste in clothing and style would allow us to be ourselves.

Yeah, pretty much! There was an unexpected Christmas influence that seeped into this as well (it was started around the time Christmas madness set in last year)
