This painting embodies the profound and often overwhelming experience of loss that accumulates over a lifetime. The empty chair beside the woman signifies the multitude of voids left by loved ones who have passed away, each one a poignant reminder of the absence that persists in our lives.

These empty spaces symbolize the grief we carry, a constant weight of unfilled places where once-thriving relationships existed. The field and shifting clouds convey the tumultuous nature of this grief, while the clear sky represents a glimmer of hope amidst the sorrow.

The piece reflects on how these empty chairs, although filled with sadness, also signify the depth of love we once shared and continue to hold. It's a meditation on the way our grief and love intertwine, showing that even in loss, there is a space for beauty and hope.

Naomi is an accomplished Australian oil painter whose work epitomises imaginative realism, drawing heavily on the classical academic principles of the old masters. Rooted in a foundation of meticulous technique, Naomi's art is often autobiographical and allegorical, reflecting deep personal experiences of grief and faith.

With an emphasis on nostalgia and beauty, Naomi creates pieces that transcend mere aesthetics, inviting viewers to engage in critical thinking. Believing that art should be inherently beautiful regardless of its subject matter, Naomi strives to produce works that not only captivate the eye but also stir the soul.

Through her practice, Naomi endeavours to keep alive the timeless elegance of classical techniques while infusing them with contemporary relevance.
