Original artwork description
The Beauty Queen
The Beauty Queen just happened, and she was beautiful to me.
So my mind wandered to the queen part.
I remembered my art teacher at the Teacher’s College telling us the following:
He said we have to know that we would be only twice in our lives a Queen.
No matter what the sequence would be, but it would be when we stand as a teacher, for the first time, in front of our own class and then when you walk as a bride towards your husband to-be.
And so it happened, in my heart, then, I was a queen.
Later that day I walked past the mirror and I saw my mum staring back at me.
I was in no doubt - a queen, I will be no more.
Many layers of paint and acrylic paste medium was used to create this painting. The gold background is gold leaf paint and mixed media.

Mixed media, acrylic on canvas
