The Waves of Purgatory by Julie Worthington
Painting
Artist statement: Portrayal of living within a constant heaviness, unpredictable, drowning state. The sea like pain, overpowering and relentless tides that wash upon the earth. I long for the tides to take my pain. The tiny flickers of white and gold are my lost thoughts and dreams that I see coming nearer with the waves as I stare with trickling tears... but they are taken again with the tide...
