Late Winter is one of twelve pieces in the "Four Seasons" series.
"Four Seasons" honors all women and our common mother, the Earth. It features portraits of women from around the world who personify the seasons. These women can be thought of as queens, goddesses, or spirits.
The circle is at the heart of this series and women as the champions of the environment at its center. The paintings are printed on canvas and finished with traditional handicrafts like embroidery, beads, and paint with custom-designed and painted frames. Going from an analog world to a digital creation and back again to a tactile finished piece that embraces the traditions of generations past is an important part of this work.
The series is meant to empower the viewer to see the beauty and value found in all ages and ethnic groups. It is intended to combat stereotypes and ageism in a subtle but powerful way.
