Original artwork description:

***Conceptual info***
This piece depicts an astronomer, holding a telescope up to the night sky. In her other hand she holds a scale with a tiny golden ball on it, meant to represent the sun. She stands on an earth toned ball, representing the earth. The arc around her represents the night sky and 12 plants grow from it, representing the 12 signs of the Zodiac.

***About***
I have been a professional full time artist since 2004, have showed throughout the US and am in multiple museum collections as well as private collections throughout the world. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me, even if you just want to ask more about what a piece means or about why I create art.

***Framing***
All pieces come framed. I create the frames myself (an example of which is in the pictures). All frames are cut, joined, wood filled, sanded so there is no appearance of joining method and then painted and sealed. Ready to hang with a signature on the back of the actual piece and then one on the back of the paper that covers the frame. Some of the frames have little designs painted on, like the example I included in the pictures. The frames are float frames, meaning the piece appears to float in the frame. No part of the actual painting is covered by the frame, nor touches the frame.

***Shipping***
I use silicone based conservator paper to wrap the painting before packing up. This is a non stick paper, expensive paper, highly useful. I double box the painting, so there is no need for crating. If you do want it crated, let me know and we can work something out. Painting will arrive in great condition, I have never had a problem and I have been doing this for almost 14 years. If you have any specific shipping needs please let me know.
