ED - Acrylic on canvas. 50.8cm x 40.6cm.
I've aimed to capture the emotional struggle of not feeling safe enough to express one's true self and inner turmoil that comes with living inauthenticaly for the sake of society in a world that may not always understand.

DAN - Acrylic on canvas. 42cm x 30cm. This is one of my more pop-art style pieces. I wanted to keep the colours basic and let the black do most of the talking.

THE CELESTIAL LOVERS - Acrylic on canvas, 40cm x 50cm.
The spirits of the celestial lovers come together to create a new life. While this new life is symbolised as a child in a womb, this could be any new life they wish to grow together that works for them both.

LIFE - Acrylic on canvas

Sometimes I like to just paint symbols from a blend of both Aboriginal and Indo-European culture. “Life” is a pictorial exploration of the journey we all take as individuals as we travel through life.

The Therapist - Acrylic on canvas

In order to help heal his patients, the therapist gives them pieces of himself so his patients can become whole again. But what happens when the therapist runs out of pieces to pass on? “The Therapist” explores the undiscussed long-term effect on clinicians.

I'm wondering if I should start an Etsy store or something. What y'all think?

* This is where I need a laughing face react on here 😆

Yeppa. I guess this is the result of the Big Mac society 😕

I get that "connections" don't happen as quickly as on FB; but you actually see what's really important to people, and like you said it's genuine and not full of influenzas. People may also post less on here than on FB, but that seems to because people are living life rather than posting 24/7.

TRUST ME... - Acrylic on canvas

Do we trust those in positions of social authority to easily? Believing that they know best and always have our best interests at the forefront? Is this conditioned trust dangerous? Do these figures of social authority necessarily deserve our blind trust?

JESUS OF SUBURBIA - Acrylic on canvas black light painting.

A stereotypical Millennial is sacrificed on a cross. "I.S.R.M" on the plaque stands for Iesus Suburbiae Rex Millennialium (Jesus of Suburbia, King of the Millennials). It's a commentary on how a generation has been sacrificed for society.

I just shrug it off now. But looking through history; this is simply a return to the historical status quo. Remember this: it's not a fact unless you've heard it from your favourite echo chamber on Facebook.
