About this artwork
Oil on oil paper. “In this painting a figure embraces flowers the roots of which are nourished by a bowl of water within her belly. An open glass jar cocoons her: she is not hiding or hidden, simply sheltered in a safe retreat. This painting is about celebrating time alone to recharge and reconnect to ourselves. ‘Healing’ is about savouring both the power and peace within our centre.” -

About the artist
Cynthia Howard is a contemporary artist based in Sydney, Australia working mostly in oil paints. Her concepts come from stream-of-consciousness and either manifest as the free-flowing lines in her colourful abstract figures, or as the surrealist undertones in her realistically painted compositions. Sometimes she combines realism with her abstract figures in one concept. Cynthia Howard’s work surrounds an interest in self determination and touches on the subjects of life philosophy, psychology, and personal to interpersonal relationships. Her paintings deal predominately with the richness of our internal world and musings about how we radiate energy and intention to our outer world. | www.cynthiahoward.com
