Love Buzz






These pieces are from the 'Love Buzz' art show, which opened February 14, 2010 at the Fire and Ice lounge located in Smithtown, New York. They stayed up for the following show, 'Fool Manchu', which opened April 1, 2010 and stayed at the lounge through the end of April. Note, one image not shown. ("...And a thing called love")



The pieces were created based upon the theme of love buzz, and were left open to interpretation. I decided to go with the image of a little girl plucking the petals from a flower, and the elation of the last petal landing on 'he loves me'. But, as the world doesn't always work in our favor, occasionally the petal may fall on 'he loves me not', and the girl experiences the defeat and heartache of a love unrequited. 

These paintings were done on wood, with acrylic and mixed media.
