Presence and Absence Ed. 1 of 1

The crisp brushwork in this unique state monotype print is everything! It’s one of the things I won’t appreciate about a monotype painting or drawing. The mark-making! Anyway, the inspiration behind the artwork is ‘presence and absence’. Perhaps it’s about a particular person or a former self. I think it’s open enough to speak personally to a variety of people and situations.

The shades of grey make it ideal to sit amongst an eclectic mix of artworks within your gallery wall or sit quietly on its own elsewhere. I’m imagining a white frame and a spacious mat board for display of understated elegance and beauty. But, I’m biased!
