Homesick

Here are some monotypes I did yesterday about comfort and feeling safe. It is based on a drawing I did of my sisters when they awkwardly fell asleep on top of each other with blankets, pillows and sweaters surrounding them. I wanted to play with line and surface, and see what would happen when I painted body and cloth from an unusual angle, abstracted it in parts by treating the body more as a landscape. There is something about a stack of sisters (or cousins) sleeping on top of each other (one probably drooling just a little bit on the other) that is just so familiar and humorous to me.
