VIRTUE

Exibited Nov 24 - Dec 17 2021 at Esquimalt Gallery Splash!

Full-size female form.  3d wire sculpture wall hanging.  Interior or exterior installation.  Painted, galvanized chicken wire.

 I was inspired to do this one initially by the pose in Andrew Wyeth's painting "Christina's World". I love the twist in her back. As I was working on her, I was listening to "Hell Cats", a rollicking good tale of the adventures of Anne Bonny and her good friend Mary Read, the infamous lady pirates of the Caribbean in the 1720s. Arrrrrrgh. So she morphed somewhat into Anne Bonny, lying on the beach, looking out to sea. The name of the ship they co-captained was the 'Virtue'
