Artist Description

Artwork sold unframed

Artist Notes:
Orangutans are just the most divine creatures and I've always loved them for their peaceful and stoic nature. They symbolize a gentle connection to nature, a theme I explore in all my works. Also associated with deep introspection and wisdom, I find myself in a place in my life when this is particularly important and necessary. Sometimes we are not sure why we are drawn to something in that moment, but after a bit of research into these animals and understanding their connection to the forest and what they come to mean, it makes this work one of my most thoughtful. I am searching for peace and that is the sense I get when I look at this artwork.
