Artist Statement

My name is _________, a local artist in Dawson Creek.
In this still life painting there is a deliberate juxtaposition of ordinary objects, some reminiscent of childhood and others carrying a more mature connotation. The sequin stars scattered throughout can represent the multitude of experiences that dot our path in life. The notebook, with the words “something everlasting,” suggests that many moments during growing up, whether significant or seemingly small , impact and change us forever. Sometimes we struggle to pinpoint the exact moment when change occurs. The objects highlight how even the simplest of moments have an everlasting impact.
