…..Barbara liked to be on top. The view was so much better….

Step into a whimsical world where the bond between man and woman takes center stage in this vibrant and charming mixed media painting titled Totem. In this playful scene, a bearded man and a stylish woman are depicted against a backdrop of stylized trees under a colorful evening sky.

The man, dressed in a casual pink shirt and jeans, exudes a sense of relaxation as he playfully holds Barbara’s leg to his ear. Above him, Barbara in a blue jacket is caught in a moment of carefree bliss, with her eyes closed and head tilted upwards as if she's savoring the present moment.

Totem invites viewers to ponder the dynamics of relationships with a lighthearted touch, sparking a playful conversation about who holds the reins in matters of the heart. Let this delightful artwork captivate your imagination and bring a smile to your face as you explore the interconnectedness of love and partnership.

The image is printed on museum quality archival paper and highlighted with acrylic paint and ink. It is then laminated to a cradled wood panel, varnished, waxed and framed in a black wood floater frame.
