"The Birth Of Venus" a different way.... being born by way of color, crossing the threshold of a colorless life into a colorful one, like when you have a life altering experience, like experienceing love or death, and suddenly life is more vibrant and colorful....its a new birth in which you appreciate life more.
11" x 14" canvas panel. 2008.
I've used charcoal pencil to draw an outline of the features and then painted in with oil. The entire canvas is painted.
ie. going from a colourless world to a colourful one
that is also what happens when one finds love
