Artwork Description:   "A brave new world" is painting no. 4 in my series studying American youth, and the effects of an evolving and shifting culture on these young adults, in particular, young women. In this painting, I am exploring the subject of behaviors we now consider "taboo" versus the rebellious nature of youth, and the dichotomy of "now versus then" in that there is a constance in the "immortal" thinking of all youth of all culture, and in their defiance of current "norms" in their quest to find themselves. This particular painting deals with the subject of single motherhood and teenage mothers.
