Painting Modesty

Working on a new painting. This one is 12×12 inch oil on panel of a white sheet, a speculum, and a conch shell.

Modesty, work in progress 12×12 inch, oil on panel

I had the idea to paint a speculum a few weeks ago. Last week I painted a conch shell wrapping shrink wrap. Painting the shell was challenging . I thought I would paint it again this time with the speculum.

I still have many details to add. I think I need to let it dry for a few days first.

Thank you for reading about my painting process.

My best,
Emily Warren

The work is inspired by an engagement with play and making peace with uncertainty. I work experimentally, using a digital video to explore painting. I use sound and moving images in non-traditional ways to reverse expectations of horror and comedy. I am drawn to the whimsical nature of self-discovery. I construct repeating narratives, often depicting varying scenarios of serenity, silliness, and reflection.
