Description
Minimalistic figurative abstract celebrating the beauty and life giving force of women. SHE is a GODESS. SHE is LOVE and BEAUTY. SHE is the HOPE OF LOVE RESURRECTED.
Artist Note - "I wanted to celebrate the lines of a women - the simple beauty in form - black and white rough, sometimes broken lines - the imperfect become perfect. I worked with different ways - and chose LESS to communicate MORE. In Greek mythology, Aphrodite was the goddess of Love and Beauty. What I discovered that I felt she deserved a place amongst the trees was that she had the ability to cause fighting couples fall in love again - LOVE RESURRECTED. In my experience, woman have this innate trait of being peacemakers (although too often to there own peril) - the one that drives the hope of love. I imagine that without that most men would never know the hope of love without a strong woman to push them. TO all APHRODITES - I THANK YOU!"

Once again you inspired me with your BW line drawings to venture out. Really love this lines here. Thanks for your support as always. It was a challenge to make her beautiful without creating something objectifiable.
