About the Item
Artist Comments
Depicting two interconnected figures caught in a never-ending embrace, this painting is a meditation on the endless cycle of passion, self-doubt, burn-out, and struggle all artists live through. In many ways, to be an artist- or any passionate, driven person- is to choose a life of inner pain. But we would not be ourselves without our art, and the struggle and doubt is worth the limitless joy of creation. The struggle and the joy are intertwined, and we can't have one without the other.
