WOUNDED (60x40 in) will be at the upcoming 21st Edition of Art Palm Beach Fair. Please join me at the @olivercolegallery booth, January 17 -21 , 2018.
“Woundeed” is part of a series inspired by the polarizing subject of trophy hunting in Africa. I created two Elephant themed paintings using the same shapes with varying compositions to represent two different perspectives. This is meant to illustrate the two opposing sides of Trophy Hunting. At first, I was strongly against it. After educating myself more I realized that it is not as simple as black and white/good and bad. I would like to encourage everyone to learn more about both sides of an issue so that they can view people with opposite opinions not as monsters, but as fellow human beings.

A close up to finish off this tri-post.  I am very excited to finish up a painting soon and start a new commission. I love that particular moment.

That Black on Black painting is one of my first. It was a milestone for me at the time. A small variation can make a big difference.
I woke up dreaming of a sunset. I wish you a beautiful Saturday.
