Perfect Darling
May 2 - 8, 2022

Perfect Darling is an online exhibition of charcoal drawings on coloured Japanese paper, paired with matching dainty frames and a handful of encaustic works. This new series explores stereotypes of feminine whimsy found in objects such as flowers, babies, dogs & kitties, and things mostly sugar and spice.  Conceived as a step away from the darkness of winter and heavy hearts this collection of drawings is imbued with haunting energy and gestural mark making.
