"FROZEN" Featured in the February Issue of British Vogue

My painting "FROZEN" (19) is currently being showcased in the February 2023 issue of British Vogue magazine. This is the second time my artwork has been featured in the publication, with "Grounded" previously appearing in the January issue. I am deeply honoured and thankful to have my art recognized by such a prestigious magazine and I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to the British Vogue team for their support and recognition of my work.

As an artist, I am passionate about inspiring others and evoking emotions through my paintings. My work is a form of self-expression, inspired by nature and my love for the natural world. I put my heart and soul into each piece, striving to convey the emotion behind it through my vibrant use of color and expressive brushstrokes. My abstract oil paintings are a reflection of my emotions and deep connection with nature, and I am constantly exploring new techniques to create depth and texture in my work. As written in the magazine my paintings are only complete when the emotion is conveyed to the viewer. 

The painting "Frozen" that now is being feautured in the February issue of British Vogue is an abstract oil painting that depicts a frozen landscape shrouded in snow and ice. An imposing iceberg, located off-center at the upper right corner of the painting, serves as a powerful symbol of resilience in the face of emotional turmoil. The deep cracks in the ice convey the heavy burden of a troubled heart, while the dark blue clouds hovering above the significant iceberg represent the negativity we may encounter in life. However, the clear blue sky that shines through the clouds offers a glimmer of hope and light, reminding us that even in times of sadness, we must persevere and focus on the positive because there is light to live for, love. "Frozen" encourages viewers to confront their emotions, find the strength to move forward, and emerge stronger and wiser from their struggles. It's like journeying across the Arctic Ocean, past the clouds, climbing the mountains, pass the dark negative clouds and walk to the light on the other side of the mountains, stronger and wiser. "Frozen" is a testament to the power of resilience and a reminder to choose love, even in the face of adversity.
