About the Item

Description furnished by Artist- The Queen Is King is a symbol of feminine qualities and power represented through the mind ,body and spirit. Her armored dress is ready for the battles of life. A breastplate of righteousness protects her heart, shielding her faith. Her heart is the center of her soul, holding all of her morals, truths, and unyielding love. The flamingo represents wisdom and the journey she must make when the time comes for her feminine qualities to embrace the masculine fire that burns inside. The triangles branded on the pigs hind legs and the symbolic number "3" which make up the angles of a triangle are pointing upwards, which represents the fire of the eternal rebellion of the woman against man and the Divine; to achieve wholeness in the garden of Eden. Through the apple the new king achieves knowledge and peace. Biography furnished by Artist- I'm a self-taught painter. My passion is sharing the metaphors I uncover in life's layers. I've always been drawn to legends, folklore and dreamworlds. My paintings are permanent records of fantastical moments, dreams reflected in the symbolic fountains of inspiration, allegories of philosophical restlessness. These apparitions act as catalysts for self-reflection. In my work I ponder our multifaceted identities as beings of this world. The colors, textures and strokes, which sometimes die just to be reborn, embody words and emotions in my paintings. My life changed after I was diagnosed with a cavernous malformation of the brain in 2006, which has led to many interesting discoveries and revelations. Seizures and migraines continue to impact my visual ability and perceptions of reality, forcing me to challenge myself more as an artist. My emotions, manifesting both conscious and unconscious states of being, allow me to open my spirit as an instrument of art. For me, painting is like listening to music somewhere deep inside my soul, taking hold of that very personal, internal experience and making it visible to the world. When I paint, I create a visual description of the aural colors and emotional textures of the symptomatic experience that surrounds me like a waking dream. I have researched the lives and works of fellow artists, writers, composers and spiritual visionaries who suffered from similar neurological diseases. Realizing how many others I'm connected to, as if linked by a common synapse, I no longer feel I'm alone... and I wish to share this awareness, empowerment and hope through my art.
