Comfortable?

This is a digital study for a painting exploring isolation and alienation in the modern world.

Like others in this series, it uses metaphor, is informed by the constructs of Minimalism and Formalism, and references the work of Piet Mondrian.

This is the last iteration in this sub-series …. I may make one more as a portrait, but enough for the time being. Time to move on. I’m quite happy with this one and think it will translate well onto canvas – it will be the largest of the three.

    Great work and congrats on your feature! This image has a lot of depth and conceptual interest, plus those dogs are really adorable back there. Love it!

  • Thank you so much! This one is actually being painted at the moment. I’m so glad people realise that there is more to it than just face value. :-)
