"Her Moon" is an original mixed media and acylic painting that measures 16x 20 inches. This is a gallery wrapped painting, with the sides painted,so it is ready to hang as is. I created this painting in 2006 as part of my "Expecting" series that explored my first pregnancy and that was displayed at my first solo show at the Fifth Avenue Gallery in Melbourne, Florida in 2007.


"The Earth's moon has been personified as female and has been perceived as a symbol of the feminine principle since time memorial...
The obvious similarity between the phases of the waxing moon, from the thin white crescent that is seen in the evening sky following the new moon to the full white circle which graces the sky fourteen nights later, and the gradually expanding belly of an impregnated woman was most certainly taken note by many anciet fertility cults..." -Robin Edgar
