Bag of Bones

12x9x0.7" Original mixed media on 140 lbs cold press watercolor paper, mounted onto cradled wood panel.

A small but intense moment is happening here. We carry so much more than meets the eye: a lifetime of stories, memories, relationships, and all the little pieces that make us who we are. We contain multitudes, even if the world only ever gets to see a fraction of them.

Look at the warm figure at the center, held by the dark and flecked with tiny dots of light, like stardust. Our stories become part of a shared history, intertwined with people we’ve known, loved, lost, and perhaps never met. Memories fade, and what once felt so important becomes something we can barely hold onto.

Maybe that’s the beauty of it. We’re here for a little while, carrying an extraordinary collection inside an otherwise ordinary bag of bones. Every piece matters, whether or not anyone remembers it.

The fine print:

Purchase options include the original painting, one of one, wired for hanging and finished with a gold rim. The back is signed, with the name of the piece, year and collection. 

Prints are offered in two sizes, a 8x10 full color, high quality archival giclee print on textured watercolor paper, unsigned, or a larger sized premium archival giclee print 11x14 option, which will be a numbered and signed collectors edition. Larger prints will be limited to a 10 piece run.

Prints will be shipped flat for safety within 2-4 weeks of order date, packed carefully in rigid mailers.

Shipping or delivery rates for original artwork will be determined on your location. Please reach out after purchasing to discuss this with me! Local pickup in Houston is also available.
