In this painting, I wanted to depict the most auspicious of the trines, a Grand Trine. I wanted our lovely ladies here to be enjoying a moment of complete, unhindered joy. Their connections with each other are easy and positive, and despite their physical differences, they share a harmony that makes the world around them bright and beautiful.

For this piece, I wanted to talk about the idea of mourning something you thought you wanted, then realised you don't want it anymore. It's the illusion that that thing would make you feel a certain way, when what you really yearned for, was the emotion itself.

In this painting, the marble statue represents her ideal she's always looked for, and her face shows realisation. Now that she holds in in her hands the love she thought she yearned for, she realises that without the warmth of emotion, it is nothing but a piece of cold marble. And so in mourning, she lets go.
