Painter (and occasional crafter), based in Brighton, UK
“Crown of Shame”

In 1561, a woman in London was sentenced to wear a crown of rotting fish & paraded through the streets - a punishment designed to humiliate and control. This painting reimagines her as a woman who is defiant and unbroken.

Current work in progress, a painting started about 3 years ago, one of a few paintings that that I come back to from time-to-time.

Unusually, I’m in a rut of working up and then abandoning paintings, and not finishing anything. Has anyone else experienced this?
