At the core of our being exists a profound energy — the energy of love. Each of us seeks, in our own way, to connect with this enduring presence.

My inspiration for this work came on a trip to the beautiful green state of Kerala, India that brought me face to face with a woman who had seen many moons. The sheer joy for life that emanated from her face and entire being seemed to come from a space from deep within, a space of wisdom. The painting seeks to capture this simple presence — a fleeting yet complete moment of joy and knowing.
