Take me to the river...

Take Me to the Water's Edge.
60x64"

One of the largest paintings I've done since the Pandemic Series, Take me to the Water's Edge presents a simple interaction, or the beginnings of a power struggle.

If one is the voice speaking the title, one is seeking something they don't quite know but strongly desire. If being asked, one is placed in a position of power, holding knowledge that another seeks. However, one could also see the person demanding to be led somewhere as the one in charge while the one leading the way could simply be following orders. Is the leader the leader or, by following the orders of a follower, relinquishing their dominance in the situation. Perhaps this is simply an encounter of two people approaching the nearest water access. Perhaps it's representative of a power struggle that's a bit harder to define. 

Take me to the river is available for purchase. Inquire for details and check out the shop when that gets up and running.
