Narrative Painting 2018…
Hamlet, Ophelia, Shakespeare and all that jazz
This body of work was created over the winter of 2017 and spring 2018. Millais’s painting of Ophelia was my inspiration.
Analysing why this image (so beguiling and beautiful) is, when all said and done, depicting a scene of someone drowning.
My intention was to retain the beauty whilst exploring these themes. As each painting developed I was motivated to explore other themes such as drifting, movement, distortion of image, suspension, peacefulness, textiles, pattern and costume.
