MUSE OF CREATION

Pastel on watercolor paper, 1995
Original is 22" X 30"

Historically these two terra-cottas are the oldest depiction of comedy and tragedy. Both partake of the other, tragedy is always comic and comedy is always tragedy. So it is with even the ripe oblivion of a young goddess. The flare of loveliness and transience weave a tapestry with the polarities of her nature and ours. Creation lives in the energy between opposites.
