Reluctant

Reluctant

2015 38 x 36" Oil Paint

This piece is titled “Reluctant“ and it is part of an ongoing series called “Fish Out Of Water.“ For a merman, water is an essential part of what makes him who he truly is. Throughout the series, the subjects are viewed and varying degrees of being in or out of water as they navigate the process of accepting their genuine selves. For many in the LGBTQ+ community, the coming-out process is often accompanied by feelings of reluctance and uncertainty that can hinder their ability to reach their full potential and find happiness. The merman’s face here is intended to capture the emotions of pain and loneliness often experience during this period of “in-between” when we are reluctant to fully embrace who we really are.
