Both of these works are apart of a pairing of paintings supposed to communicate memories of mine. I painted photographs I had taken on my phone, both before lockdown. The exposed wooden canvas, sporadic forms and visible grey lead outlines speak to the reminiscent value of the images and the emphasis I wanted to place on the emotive implications of the works. The significance of these memories is largely the carefree and distinctly teenaged nature of them and the importance of the freedom to explore and express that you gain as an adolescent, which I especially appreciated as I painted them during stage 4 lockdown. There is also a massive importance to be given to relationships fostered in youth, and their lasting impression even if only in memory.
