The Janus Figure

GICLÉE PRINT
(signed limited edition of 25),
certificate available.

The Janus Figure is a composite image using drawings no.'s 30 and 19 from The Childhood Study Series.

In Roman mythology, the Janus figure had the ability to see in the front and the back simultaneously. The two half-child figures in the centre of the image indicate that having this ability creates a gap. It is in the gap where the creative possibility lies.

I am an artist, born in Canada and presently living and painting in the U.K. In my painting I work with what I call the ‘interior landscape’; I use images and ideas from my dreams to help me represent visually the mountain ranges and coastal plains inside a person. My studio is an old chapel situated in Abbotsbury, a 600-year-old village in South West Dorset. This is where I work and exhibit my paintings... It is also the place where I hold my Art Therapy workshops. The studio is open to the public all year round.
