A Sense of Growth

- A Sense of Growth -

Description by dunn95

Oil on Canvas, 22 x 28 inches. This was a commission for my friend Kurt. It is not my usual way of working, but I honestly don't mind it too much, nice change in pace I suppose and nice experiment for me. I suppose this painting can resemble a lot of different things for different people, which is what I'd want. But one way of looking at it, to prove it isn't completely meaningless, is that the branch grows through a series of "stages". It grows more "confident" and finds a stronger contrast, in this case, more solid sense of growth. The branch and the background changes color each time, showing the different stages, how much changes and how much it grows and what it goes through in the process. It is a way of showing how a person may go through a lot of different things, slowly finding out who they are and what they can become, such is the branch reaching out, striving to grow. The branch is abstract because it is not really something we can see happening, it is something that happens internally and within. Anyway, I hope that makes some sort of sense, I am sure it helps to make sense of this, haha.
