    Beautiful, i love the darkness and emotion!

  • Thanks briarlee! I’ve got an exhibition coming up with theme ‘identity and emotion’ and I’m contemplating putting this one into it, so it’s great that you recognised some ‘emotion’ in it – wasn’t sure how apparent it was … Thanks for the fav too!

    Beautiful work G….for me a dual effect….coming out of the shadows and hiding in the shadows. Love the blue. xo

  • Ah yes, an interesting and very valid interpretation … I think one of the things I like about darkness is the light when it peaks through … Thank you very much. x

    Stunningly moving piece .I love your response to Cosimo too…the sensation and pleasure of that light peaking in almost makes the dark worthwhile. Lovely peace of work…a tender and beautiful expression of life’s shadow moments :) xo

  • Thanks so much, that’s lovely to hear. Yes, one of life’s shadow moments – and celebrating the darkness.
