Finally, 4 and 6 years later, the boys and I put gesso on on our belly casts. I say ours, because they were the little beings that caused my figure to blossom so bountifully. You'll notice that one is larger than the other, as I was much more supple to stretch ;)..i think both forms are absolutely beautiful in their own way, just as my children are in their own way…
My eldest wants to paint our first house on his…while my younger insists that he is Venus. I want to have the moon and sun be central in each one of their designs as I feel that I am the earth and they are my sun, and moon. My husband is that vast space that holds us, elemental like me, earthy, the tree rooted in me….
One is my egg, the other, my igloo…
I'll post the next phase in the process, sanding, hopefully very soon.
