CUEVA

CUEVA is the ninth oil painting in my Mother Earth Series, about our relationship with the Earth. In this painting the Earth protects all living creatures from destruction. She gazes at them with eyes covered with Impatien flowers, symbols of motherly love. The white roses in her hair symbolize grace as they turn into doves, the loyal messengers of hope. The cave in the center of her being, represents the center of the Earth and ourselves. The place where the spirit and the fire of life begins.

Oil on Canvas, 48x60x1.5inches/152.4x121.92cm

My Mother Earth Series is painted with richly pigmented water-soluble oil paints made by Royal Talens, a paint company that is committed to sustainability. I paint on cotton canvases that I texture myself with a heavy-bodied gesso and each canvas has a 1.5 inch wood frame.

Oil paintings take extra care in packing and shipping. I will cover the cost of having each oil painting professionally packed and secured in wooden crates. You will need to cover the cost of shipping. Contact me to discuss shipping & delivery.
