Large Mixed Media Painting "I wish..."

Original works of art by Virginia Beach Artist

Shawn Davis

"I wish I would have said something"

In this piece,  the figure is immersed in the  regret  of not speaking up when she had the chance.  So she daydreams of what could have been while  her  head rests on her hands.

This mixed media painting, and others in this series explore the idea of dual realities.  The figure is bound by the reality of a present circumstance , but  longs to be set free.  The figures in this series exist within their "frames", yet parts of them escape to the world outside.

Rich with detail, texture, and depth!

This  is an original mixed-media piece on primed, heavy weight, 100% cotton rag paper.  It comes matted in a neutral, light gray mat and backed with foam core, framed under acrylic glass in a black, 24" x 36", gallery style frame. 

This piece combines my love of architectural ornament, the figure, mixed media collage and painting. 

Please feel free to email with any questions you may have.

Thanks for looking.
