D is for Dietes

Size: 8 x 10 inches

There are a number of different variants and many names for Dietes, by my favourite is the ‘Fairy Iris’ known to be a symbol of healing. In amongst the chaos and inevitability of the constantly moving world around us, I wanted to focus on images of gentle healing as a refuge. Somewhere to take a pause, a breath, a moment to yourself. I hope you take a well-deserved moment today as you look at this piece

Created with a combination of brushwork and applying paints with palette knife, this original artwork has been finished with a satin varnish for protection.
