Mim's Art - Exposed - "CASSANDRA"

24”x30” – Acrylic on Gallery Style Framed Canvas

Meaning: Prophetess of Doom. In Greek myth Cassandra was a Trojan princess, the daughter of Priam and Hecuba. She was given the gift of prophecy by Apollo, but when she spurned his advances he cursed her so nobody would believe her prophecies

Inspiration: For this piece Mim was inspired by the mysterious depths of an insightful friend with wild hair and a fascination with the unrelenting sea.

Concealed Images: A beautiful mermaid torments over an ancient world, now reclaimed by blue depths. Amongst the bubbles, schools of fish can be seen swimming through a dilapidated archway overhanging an ornate door. A pillar with a Templar Knight sinks slowly into the ground, surrounded by squids, jellyfish, sea horses, and batfish.

Mim's Art - Exposed - "CARRIE"

18”x30” – Acrylic on Thin Styled Framed Canvas

Meaning: A free spirit.

Inspiration: This painting is a combination of many meaningful things: an adventurous spirit yearning to fly; family ties grounding from within; First Nations heritage beckoning for the appreciation of surroundings; and finally, Canada and Australia, dual homes forever tearing a heart in two. The ‘Birth & Rebirth’ of childhood dreams of Australia (which may as well be on the moon from Canada) take on new meaning when shared with a beloved.

Concealed Images: Near a small fire, a Native American woman (kwe) hugs her knees and looks up at the moon, visualizing a faraway land. A lone pine tree and eagle are silhouetted in the distance, while a Phoenix emerges from the embers. As if watching from above, a large Eagle's head can be found in the background – peering into her soul, and carrying her prayers to Creator.
