Cracked

Description

The cracks in this piece are to replicate the earth in the dry season when all the water has been gone for a while and the ground is dry and cracked. I didn’t quite realise at the time but I was instead thinking of my mum when painting this, that’s why I choose purple, her favourite colour. My mother is a tough woman, yet something I realised from my own healing journey is that mother needs one too. Children don’t realise and recognise when people are acting out hurt feelings, but now as an adult that has been provided the proper tools, I can recognise it.
