Lulu
2023
Acrylic on canvas
100 x 80 cm

Lulu means remarkable, outstanding, wonderful. And peaceful, protected, calm. She is made of charcoal and acrylic paint on a stretched canvas sized 80 x 100 centimeters.

When I paint, and when I name my paintings, I don’t look into the the meanings of them or any of the symbols in advance. But whenever they show up, I like to do a quick search. Some of the symbols I know now, and I return to them, building a language of sorts.

Like the peony flowers. They are among my favourites. And the first time I painted them I discovered that they represent love, joy, happiness, romance, prosperity, good fortune, new beginnings.

The fox, represents cunning, playfulness, resilience. They are clever, mischievous, fearless and sure of themselves.

The moon for me always represents the feminine. The vermillion red my favourite red.
