Nicole Northway: Diary of a Shipwrecked Sailor

I am painting again! Thanks to deadlines for two upcoming shows, I'm back into it. I've been working on a series of small works, completely different than my usual mammoth paintings. This is in part to allow my work to open up in a way, begin to build a narrative between works, and allow for the more practical application of painting at the store!

This is loosely based off the book "Story of a Shipwrecked Sailor" by Gabriel García Márquez. I liken my new responsibilities as a small business owner to being shipwrecked in a way, in that I am in a liminal space and committed to a specific space for a large amount of time each week. Anyways....more on this later, here are some photos!
