“Come back” is an idea that came to me initially as a very large scale evolution painting. I didn’t get around to creating the painting, and believed the idea was gone. However, over the years the idea kept coming back, each time taking slightly different forms. All these years later, it chose me to collaborate with and has components of evolution as well as spirituality in the painting.

“Never Look Back” is a painting about overcoming internal struggle and health obstacles. I painted it to overcome my own issues, and find the painting to be about courage, perseverance, trust and strength.
