This series stems from an idea that began seven years ago using representational symbols to create scenes within paintings. Since then my experience in portraiture has grown and allowed me to incorporate this use of symbols in my work. In this series the subjects I have selected are well known icons. However, the real story is what is revealed within the painting and the personal history of their life.
