Peta Painting Corvid Series – “The Egg”

I discovered Art early in my Life. As a 4 year old, painting and color mixing were a welcome respite from the tropical chaos surrounding me. Art became a comforting island. We were adrift together in a turgid sea full of sweaty reproduction and bacteria ridden death.

Art saved my sanity.

Without it my life would have taken on the swollen, fly blown pallor of the beige of heart. I might have rotted silently away.
I did not.
I went to art school instead.
