About The Artwork
While working on this piece and contemplating possible titles, Pink Floyd’s song Time came on (from which I borrowed a line). It’s a cautionary tale about squandered youth and the relentless advance of age, and it spoke to me as an appropriate metaphor for this piece, which captures a delicate moment in the life of a young girl on her life’s journey. A magic spell is simply the words we speak and what we believe about ourselves. It is our intention, which becomes the difference between a life of slow decline, or a joyful and ever expanding dance towards our full potential. The scene was further inspired by the figurative works of 19th Century artist, William Adolphe Bouguereau.
