In a small clearing where a vigil is set, lit only by flickering candles and scattered moonlight, the dichotomy of life and death and the parallels of growth and decomposition are explored… 
The vision behind "The Wake" was a funeral held by Nature for a fallen animal; I first considered painting a fox, but the innocence of a young deer seemed more fitting. Pretty much every element of this piece was intentionally chosen to tie into the exploration of life, death, transformation, and rebirth - much of it stemming from Greek myths and superstitions.
