I know haven't really said much in the last two posts but I intend to rectify that soon. In the last part of this series I will be reflecting on my experience of the show and what I have learnt from it! That one will probably be more text heavy but I look forward to finally penning my thoughts on it.

Once again thank you for taking the time to look through my work and for all the comments!

Very powerful pictures. They are fascinating in their portrayal of despair and agony.

Thank you for commenting! I hope this portrayal gave you some insight!

Loved the way darkness of souls was captured in these pieces. Love your paintings fellow painter.

Thanks you! I like to think the work has some humour in them as well :)
