Twenty Years Later
Ahhh, Spring is in the air. I was doing a little Spring organizing in the studio and recently unwrapped my 2005 painting, EQUINOX, celebrating a change of seasons, from Winter to Spring. As if perched between two seasons, my muse graces the pedestal with poise and unique beauty. In this painting, she is approximately life-size.
Vernal Equinox: The vernal equinox occurs in the Northern Hemisphere around March 20 or 21, when the Sun reaches the northbound celestial equator. The vernal equinox also marks the beginning of spring, which lasts up to the summer solstice, according to the astronomical concept of seasons.
I painted EQUINOX, my life-size fine art nude (above), on canvas twenty years ago, inspired by the change of seasons. EQUINOX is a follow-piece to SOLSTICE, which I painted in 2004 to capture the essence and warmth of the Summer Solstice. Both creations are from my canvas realism collection of about a dozen paintings from early 2004 through late 2005 at my Tigard, Oregon studio.
