Beauty. Compassion. Creation.
Is this mother nature? To me that is who I have painted here. Beautiful (inside & out), compassionate and holding the power of creation in her eyes and in her power of divinity.
 
Set in front of a distant landscape featuring a regional variety of mountains, trees and oceans she looks directly into the viewer's eyes with emotional intensity. She looks with intrigue and compassion. The depth and mood of this portrait is powerfully delivered with windswept hair that pops out to the audience in a nurturing embrace, and juxtaposed with the turbulent wind that pushes the ocean-soaked strands towards us.
