20” x 24” x 3/4” canvas, black painted edges, ready to hang

Ink and acrylic

This painting started as something else entirely. I struggled to bring life to the other image. I kept working and reworking and it was lifeless, hollow. So, I was brave and let go of what was and let what will be, come. I started fresh with no ideas of what the outcome would be. I simply let the materials and lines do as they may. The figure appears brave and faces the bright light, colors coming from within and darkness behind her. The old painting hinting from below, staining the paint above, yet all coming together with an ethereal feel.
