With this Ring (I thee wed)

Title: "With this Ring" Media: Acrylic & Heavy Gloss on Canvas, Unframed, Gallery-Wrapped Edges, rich, vibrant, thick textured paint. Dimensions: (H"xW"xD") 16" x 20" x 1.5" Artist Statement: "With this Ring" explores the union of two lovers. The couple, depicted as trees, intertwine everything - their lives, their roots, their passion, their offspring. The marriage bond anchors them. restrains them. sustains them. It is an examination of a patient yearning to unite creation - and thrive together. The textured paint is there to give it a rough edge - which perhaps goes with the turmoils of marriage. But the overarching theme reaches toward the rings that bind us. and give us steadfastness. nourishment. strength.
