About the Artwork:

“It’s ok to feel overwhelmed. This is the beginning of my series of animals and woman expressing emotions. Being overwhelmed is normal. Using blues and greens to give a sense of drowning in her emotions. Layering Sharks emerging from a second layer on the canvas revealing the terror that being Overwhelmed can bring.” – Matt Byle
