Embers & Ashes is an evolving collaborative project between two artists creating a collection of representational works as interpreted through the prisms of light and dark, life and mortality. Literal in its presentation of opposing ends of a spectrum, the two-artist collection combines paintings that range in subject from lively, bucking stallions, to apparitions of ghostly children. In tone, the artworks move between warm gold and ambers (Embers) to cooler monotone sepias with the faintest hint of a complimentary color (Ashes).The unifying element of these seemingly disparate works is that they are created by a sister and brother duo who are both figurative painters approaching the genre with distinctly unique perspectives.
