"I want people to tune in to the beauty of another story. To stop, take some time with the details, the sensations, the intrigue, the things you may not know, the things I didn’t know, and to listen to the stories of others through the beauty of historical roots, folklore, mythology, and nature. I have felt intentions and connections more from the Divine Feminine side and I've leaned into that as well. I also just find women to be very beautiful. Deeply. Maybe it is more so my wife who has bewitched me to her wondrous ways and I’m projecting that onto all of you. Regardless, benefactors, it’s all about beauty and hair is not only an extension of that, but also of identity. So exploring the breadth of what both can represent when you dive ever deeper within a story that differs from your own is a way for me to uplift all of that and more. Hopefully, encouraging all of us to engage; in the most intuitive and genuine ways, by listening, learning, and imagining. To be the change." - MDB

This series is created using gouache and ink on panel. The panels are found and repurposed hard woods; some from old desktops, scrap wood, or from a "free" pile on the side of the road. All the vintage frames are solid wood and found at estate sales, garage sales and second hand stores. The modern frames are built by hand, by me, and framed in non-reflective Museum glass, also by me. Illustrations created with India ink on Bristol.

Limited edition archival prints available too 😉
