Old Maids 2 30X30 Acrylic on canvas 2015

This is part of my old maid series. I am 32, mormon and single. But I feel young. I am holding a saw. Mormons have a children's song about popcorn trees. I am breaking with tradition and chopping down the trees.

Popcorn Tree series

Popcorn Tree 1, 30X30, Acrylic on canvas, 2015
The painting is about how I'm considered an old maid in the Mormon church. I am 32 still young, but there is that attitude. I am in old maid attire but I am with a chain saw. There is a children's song "Popcorn popping on the apricot tree." I am breaking with tradition and chopping down the popcorn tree. This is series. This is the first one.

The Golden Macaroni series

Golden macaroni was magical as a kid. It was also not beautiful for adults. Spirituality is kind of like golden macaroni. It really is beautiful but takes more than a first look.
