Knowing where she came from made new discoveries ever fresh

The quote that accompanies this painting refers to a river having a source, a strong direction and a destination. Journeying along its path, travelling through life sometimes pushing into new territory. A river seems a good metaphor for a persons life.

The indigo blue frame is a collage of beautiful Japanese hand made paper. Soft tones of blues and greens wash across the female figure who has striking features and a mystic expression. Her hair has winding curves like a river system. The painting has been done on a deep edge canvas, so though ready to hang on a wall, can also sit up on a shelve or other flat surface.
