Cocoon

40x50cm 

acrylic on canvas

This painting reminds me of my childhood and family holidays spent in Cornwall many years ago. Inspired by a picture or photograph I saw somewhere. Highly textured painting and very tactile. It also goes to prove that accidents with paint can have a happy outcome. A few accidental spots of paint turned into A Flock of Seagulls: It's something to remind me, I wouldn't spend my life just wishing......this painting, it also reminds me of childhood fears, afraid to venture out into the open world, I'd rather stay here, safely inside my cocoon. And if you know your 80's music you'll be able to find the hidden song lyric somewhere in this description.
