Aphrodite - study in Opalescence, one of the works in the Women & Myth, Legend & Literature series, is a digital photo-painting in opalescent tones of white, greys and pale blues and pinks, based on a color palette typical of an opal or abalone shell. It's a study in contrasting extremes between hard edge classical architecture and soft, ethereal organic flowing forms. She exists in the nether space between a lyrical living being and a sculpted marble statue, bridging myth and reality.
