Solo, fleshy figures of women on full canvases bring in the evocative, stirring, emotional power of the feminine experience. The feminine paradise here begins with a poetic Genesis of the mind, whose mystical visions of ecstasy are strangely, intense, and feverish. The woman at the center of the world holds no concern for the beholder, and leads other women to a fuller image of freedom, without restriction, in the realm of sexuality, desire, and the feelings of sensual innocence and pleasure.
The movement through color from hues of blue to copper and browns to enlightening purple and then lush living fruit of summer in the soul of red, create a mixture of moods that deepen one into the realm of fuller understanding of the Self. It’s an inner adventure of the mind an adventure that could in fact be a hazardous affair leading at any moment to a standstill or a catastrophic bursting split of the conjoined opposites. The voluptuous vision, all-embracing in its oceanic spirit, could leave even the most courageous gasping for breath.
