Illumination

Here it is... "Illum-ination". Some of you may remember it as "black art" or "ode to Southern California Edison". In any case, I'm pleased with it. The figure is rather washed out in this photo, but she's comprised of a mix of white, beige, and blue/gray paint. The squares of paper in the lower right spell out "illumination". I think if you click on the picture, you'll get a bigger rendition. Just goes to show you that art can be healing. I started this in such a bad, angry mood. And while working on it, something in my core began to shift. What's that expression? ...When life gives you lemons, make lemonade? Yes, I think that sums it up.
