a lifetime of armour


Another quote I found in my 'notes on life' diary from March time. Reading back through some of my thoughts is really interesting, I wonder what it'll be like to look back twenty years!

This was all about people that don't fully live life. I don't want to say anymore.

I thought the artwork (a piece of mine from last year) fitted in quite nicely. Always good to have some visual inspiration as well.




" Is a lifetime travelled clad in armour a pure life or one even worth enduring?

Can those that will always protect themselves live just as enriching a life as those that fully embrace?

Or is that simply their Personal Legend, their destined path?

Either way, I’ll ensure I always remain dressed in nature’s own intended cloth; the skin I was born in. "

  1. We've chatted about this piece before Matt... You know I am a big fan!

    It is interesting that you see her (and painted her) in armour. To me, she seems so liberated. Reminds me of jumping puddles in the rain...
