Warm Earth


This paintingwas a commission from a couple , A and J , one was born amidst the wine groves and the other in Africa , both love warm colours and yellow , they even own a yellow cat .I decided to create a painting without a central realist figure and instead decide on an Indian Earth Goddess , the boy riding a bicycle remits to J`s childhood and the girl with the basket to A´s childhood , in the painting exist a few personal symbols which J and A can relate to , in this a painting I have tried to convey a feeling of warmth , which was also the feeling this couple reflect.

Before heading out to the sisters' house, he meets a mysterious woman dressed entirely in white here, in the middle of the broad, bright high-road […] stood the figure of a solitary Woman, dressed from head to foot in white garments […] I was far too seriously startled by the suddenness with which this extraordinary apparition stood before me, in the dead of night and in that lonely place, to ask what she wanted . Anne herself is almost constantly slipping around in terms of identity, revealing her own fractured personality. She goes from calm to agitated—all at the drop of a hat.
