'TWIXT TWO ETERNITIES

In these troubled times as global geo-political-climatic uncertainties prevail I find myself constantly re-evaluating the existential exigencies of modern life. I am only too aware of the existential brevity and relative insignificance of the individual between the two extremities of pre-birth and afterlife. It is nonetheless important to me, however deep the shadows that enclose us, to celebrate the positivity and indomitable optimism of the human spirit.

The painting employs extensive pointilliste painting techniques together with the associated optical colour mixing theories. The intention is to create strong contrasts of tone and colour enhanced by dynamic compositional devices.
