Icarus


Ok, so one of my paintings I'd like to show you is called 'Icarus'1995. To look at, one is led to believe a figure stands, hunched over, weighted down. Upon closer inspection, the viewer sees that the figure is actually a wing and a drawing (of a head) laid on top of each other. The two objects having been scaled up to a size comparable to a person and the space implied by a triangle of dark red at the right. If you are ever in Edinburgh, an eatery with the name of 'Amore Dogs' has this painting.
