Discovery
I work very intuitively until the composition starts to communicate my intention. I embrace “happy accidents” as I work. In this piece, working with a close up of a rock with a big crack in it. I worked the female form into it. Working with the emotions and realities of being a woman. The crack in the rock became a glowing “lava” flow emanating from the woman’s hips. The beginning of all human life. The bright glow in the breast can be interpreted as the heart or as a cancer in the breast. All the rivers and glowing golden hues connect upward to the brain. I call this “Discovery” As a woman, I’m amazed at the ability to grow life and give birth. This piece of art is created with images I took discovering the beauty of nature. In this composition it is the discovery of the wonder of the female body.
