Illustration Friday’s topic this week is: HOMAGE
I originally painted this piece shortly after my mother passed away a few years ago, it was to acknowledge and honor her.

She came from Boston, Massachusetts but lived most of her life in Caracas, Venezuela. She had an amazing mind, incredible memory and was patient with grace. It is her that helps me make some of those smart decisions in life.

I tried to captivate her presence from that other world surrounded by the lush and energetic flora and life of the tropics where she lived.
Coincidentally, her anniversary is coming up very soon…

This piece has brought me much serenity, calmness and discernment.

Art Statement

When I take the time to look and to really see and to apply my "foolish" imagination, there are worlds within worlds within worlds to be discovered.

When I allow my eyes to be excited and fascinated and pleased at what they see, I begin a journey, inventing a path to the place I choose to go; and magic happens!
