Arabella's Arrival
30" x 30", chalk pastel, acrylic, and collage on deep birch wood panel
A swan stretches her wings at the edge of flight, a tiny toy elephant is caught in its wake.
Where are they going in such haste? Haven’t you heard?
Baby Arabella has just been born.
Look closer: the swans her feet are not her own, but the porcelain hands of 1950s glove mannequins—dainty, determined, absurd. Rendered in chalky layers of pastel and acrylic, a surreal procession of symbols moving through the dream-waters of new life.
