Original mixed media on recycled artwork
At first glance, this work is a study of a single leaf—large, intimate and beautifully detailed. Look closer, and the delicate raised gold veins begin to suggest something familiar: the intricate network of veins within the human body. Look at your wrist and find the same vein pattern in this painting.
Created from recycled artwork, the leaf carries its own history beneath the surface. Old marks and colours have been transformed into something new, while the luminous gold lines trace pathways that connect the natural world to our own.
Golden Life Lines invites us to consider the quiet systems that sustain us—the veins of a leaf, the pathways within our bodies, and the invisible connections between ourselves and the natural world.
Perhaps that is what makes a leaf so remarkable: it is not simply something we look at. It is something that, in its own way, is alive, connected and remarkably like us.
The work is a celebration of transformation, connection and the enduring beauty found in nature—and in giving something old a new life.
