New painting collection called the in Betweens

A new collection has been added to the shop! The In Between Series is a collection of oil paintings that invites the viewer to contemplate the transitional moments in life, those fleeting periods that often go unnoticed as we move from one stage to another.

Each painting in the series presents a unique interpretation of "in between" moments. The compositions, brimming with rich color and intricate texture, evoke a sense of both movement and stillness. The tension and tranquillity inherent in these liminal spaces is beautifully captured.

“Maybe the journey isn’t so much about becoming anything. Maybe it’s about unbecoming everything that isn’t really you, so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place.”

— summer saldana

What makes "The In Betweens" particularly striking is its universality. Whether it's the space between sleep and wakefulness, the transition from childhood to adulthood, or the moment between decision and action, we all experience these in-between states. This series offers a moment to pause and reflect on these often overlooked parts of our lives.

I don’t always like
contentment and simplicity
because I love waking up and smiling
and falling asleep smiling
and the feeling of my heart racing
from the onset of a new adventure.
and loss and paint
can be just as exhilarating
because while it hurts,
there’s still an opened door
somewhere
that promises hope
of a better future
so when I’m not immersed in a beginning or an ending
and i’m stuck in the middle
of a monotonous emptiness,
I am at his of throwing myself
into avoidable heartbreak
just to feel something,
anything at all
-(m.k.)

“Sometimes what we learn and who we become in the process of waiting is even more important than what we’re waiting for.”

This powerful and evocative series is a reminder that life isn't just about the destinations - it's also about the journeys and the 'in between' moments that shape us. The In-Between Series is not just a collection of paintings; it's an exploration of the human experience, beautifully rendered in oil on canvas.
