This painting, titled ‘Heaven and Hell’ is a continuation of the theme of inner anxieties that make up the painting ‘Prickly Thoughts’. The premise of this painting being how we create our own Heaven and Hell within our minds through the process of thought making. The lower portion of the painting illustrates how our brain can unleash a fury of negative, demonic thoughts to reduce our minds to a living hell. But if like the figure in the painting, we manage to rise above these thoughts, we can hope to transcend into that particular aspect of our psyche where there is a peaceful void instead.
