Excerpt/passage used as inspiration:
Jane Austen's works represents the idea of romance for me. As do the objects that were commonly found during her life time.
Bookends: Cowboys I A&B are painted on the book pages of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.
The images are silhouettes of antique bookends found on auction websites.
In the digital age, most reading is now done on illuminated screens.
These paintings pay homage to the book as an object revered not only for its function but also for its physical beauty.
