#metaphorinart

I've painted my canvas many times over to conceal that which you didn't realize you hated about me. Did you know? Every word you spat about others found me tagged me. So I pulled out protective primer and paint to conceal those words and to whitewash the hate. Did you know? Did you? So, now, many years later those layers of paint and protective primer are cracking and peeling. Yet I'm still unwilling to strip the many coats and reveal the true essence of me. Why? Do you know?

This small vignette illustrates the juxtaposition of life and death. The butterfly and vine against the skull and deteriorating gothic architecture. When one story ends, a new one begins, and so it goes, hope always prevails. #hopeart #skullart #assemblage #assemblageart #lifeanddeath #andsoitgoes #sculpture #metaphorinart #hope #newlife #lifeafterdeath (at Woodland Hills, Utah) https://www.instagram.com/p/CU30nxsFIZ-/?utm_medium=tumblr
