Original: Pastel on paper, Sept 2006, 22" X 13" |
1st Limited Edition: Giclee on paper (500 copy series) |
The title of this piece, "Faces of Wine" is very apropos. Within the wine itself are dozens of subliminal faces and figures: from very intelligent looking monkeys, to dignified Native Americans: from demons and ghosts to beautiful women. The artist lights the subject with two different light sources: one from the upper left and one from the bottom left. This very unusual arrangement gives her a hauntingly beautiful look with a residue of gaunt emotion and surreal quality. |
