Homage to Eve August, 2010 Oil and Ash on canvas 4 foot diameter contact the artist
|
My mother died in May, 2010. I used some of her ashes in the pigment for this painting. Note the female Buddha above the door holding a cup of tea. My mother was a great tea drinker. The branch on the ground in front is a symbol of her letting go of her physical body and entering through the temple door. |
