Figure with an Umbrella
Acrylic And Collage On Canvas 2006
20 x 16 inches
The collage painting, Figure With an Umbrella was completed in 2006. It was a part of a series of three paintings, that represent a figure umbrella in the midst of a downpour, while his umbrella is falling apart. It is an image that express the feeling of vulnerability and at times a sense helplessness. However, it is my hope that it expresses the drive and determination of weathering the storm. The figure leans forward, so it also represents the act of confronting what is thrown at us and doing our best to move forward and to overcome and meet adversity head on.
