For the first time in a LOOOONG time I'm not sure

For the first time in a LOOOONG time I'm not sure what to paint next. So I'm spending August drawing. I spent 3 years at the end of high school living in a trailer... Something about campground life and theme parks is interesting to me so I just drew this little sketch. It's like all the aspects of my work in one sketch LOL....this is a girl sitting on a picnic table infront of a airstream in a field... With some strange bear rollercoaster rotting on the horizon. #trailer #campground #themepark #youth #rollercoaster #bear #art #sketch #drawing #artwork #sketchbook

ABOUT THIS PAINTING:
"Steps From The Mississippi"
30x40 acrylic on birch panel in frame, 2022
******
Child-like figures sit atop steps in the French Quarter, New Orleans along the shores of the great Mississippi River. As the old world is left behind and nature retakes the old city their forms are unveiled. Their body wrappings – which represent the experiences of their past – are unraveled by the river winds, born again into a new world and perspective.

ABOUT THIS PAINTING:
Between the towering willow trees a child-like figure runs through Chalmette Battlefield where the Battle Of New Orleans took place in 1815, along the Mississippi River. Often considered the birthplace of American democracy over European entitlement, the battle saw General Andrew Jackson’s army win the day against a numerically superior force.

SHOW STATEMENT
******
When we remember the places we once visited we are often struck by a child-like wonder wrapped in a feeling of nostalgia. Places we may visit again but never with the same sense of “new” as the first time. It is as if our memories are locked to our younger perceptions of ourselves and our lost past. We distort and individualize places, amplifying the good and slowly forgetting the bad. This series of works manifests those feelings through small, innocent child-like “Spirits” as they return to places where people once visited. For these initial paintings they wander New Orleans. A city I have a fond memory of visiting with my family, rich in history and personality and vibrant with the life of its people.

ABOUT THIS PAINTING:
A look down the infamous Bourbon Street in the French Quarter, New Orleans. The once boisterous and grubby street, cleaned and taken back by nature in a distant future. Looking down this empty street a child-like figure holds their found stuffed teddy bear close, alone and lost. The figure represents our own memories of places we visit for the first time when we experience feelings of discovery and wonder. Feelings that we can never reclaim if we revisit.

ABOUT THIS PAINTING
******
Near Jackson Square, the heart of the French Quarter in New Orleans, a child-like figure spots the Home of JAX Brewery. Once the home to a prominent brewery which survived prohibition and then a shopping center, now left empty and slowly being covered by nature.

ABOUT THIS PAINTING:
The famous St. Louis Cathedral, found in the heart of the French Quarter in New Orleans. The cathedral is depicted in a distant future overtaken by nature but still standing as a child-like figure sits at the fountain lost in thought. The figure represents our own memories of places we visit for the first time when we experience feelings of discovery and wonder. Feelings that we can never reclaim if we revisit.
