Wrapped-IF

August 16, 2009

For me, there is a mysteriousness, magical quality to being wrapped in knowledge, creativity and intelligence.

I live In a society, where videos and fashion deems that less is better, I like the idea of being “wrapped“.

Putting politics, religion and power issues aside, I love the beauty of these women, wrapped, I created them as Muses, contemplative, looking to be called, ready to encourage all forms of creativity.

(The original painting “3 Muses” was created and sold in 2008).

Today, wrap yourself in the creativity of your muse. Peace to you all.

    I like the meaning you attached to these figures… I might have thought of them as hidden or avoided had you not explained. Sometimes wrapping IS about refusing to see, or obscuring… and other times it is about protection and comfort.

    Beautiful work! And very thought provoking text. I think in someways living in a northern climate it seams here we are constantly wrapped… only in the summer do we really unwrap and the smiles and ease of live come flooding back into our lives. But there is something to being wrapped and the privacy it allows.
