Divine Imprint

`"Divine Imprint" (2015)

20x30 acrylic and some pastel

When "Divine Imprint" began, I was feeling an urge to get away from painting faces. I wanted push paint around expressively without judging the outcome. I quickly brushed in tube-like shapes and filled the empty spaces with paint. I began to add oval pastel shapes. I did have the image of a long dress flowing from it's wearer. The shapes became more purposeful and I saw in the image of a powerful goddess like figure, comprised of both light and dark qualities. She has a narrative, but it changes each time I look at the painting. Whatever her powers, she leaves changes in her wake.
