A Personal Collection. I envision the Goddess with the same intricatescrolled borders, elongated linear style, glowing red-browngoldsurfaces, and pictorial narratives, but more contemporary.I attempted to reproduce in mixed media, a dense text-like pattern juxtaposing a collage of images as well as contradictingtextures to leave the viewer with a vivid impression oflavishness and a sense of curiosity. The underlying focus isthat each individual woman (goddess) has dignity and worth. Place a Bid!
