Original artwork description:

Golden Egg is inspired by timeless Russian fables which feature Baba Yega at home. Standing between worlds, the house on chicken legs only lets you in if you know the proper incantation. Do you know the words that open the most guarded doors?

In this treatment, the house is Mother. Perhaps not best mother, perhaps too overbearing, perhaps at times neglectful. But what is certain is the little egg can feel all the warmth and love radiating from its mother home. From every crevice and ruffle, in every petal, brick, and burl love hides. By this the egg is fortified. She radiates her own power ready to unveil her own potential. What will hatch from a mother like that?

Ready to hang panel with rounded corners is both a piece of timeless art and a beautiful object. Full size, archival giclée prints available.

Materials used:

Oil painting on panel
