30+ years of paintings, talked about one painting at a time: what went into the paintings, what I was trying to say, what was happening at the time of my life that I made the paintings. The paintings themselves are narrative, and this adds a little more to the story that they tell.

Blue House 2016
Here's what I can tell you about the painting: it's about trying to do what's best, but still living with the fears and anxieties of both the known and the unknown. There is faith, but there is also doubt about doing the right thing, about being the best parent or spouse or partner or friend. It's about what happens inside that house: good, bad or indifferent, we don't know, but can only guess.

ReplyDeleteWhat is its size?
Terry: It's 24" x24"
ReplyDeleteThis is such a powerful image, Holly. I really appreciate that you are able to articulate this concept so eloquently. I loved the image from just seeing it visually, but having this information allows me to have a deeper philosophical relationship with it, as well.
