Aphrodite
Gods, made up of memories they become an abstraction of who they once were. This painting began as a rose on a post card. Then, other unidentifiable flowers surround the original rose.
Framed by a white background and a decorative design on its pink edges, what was the original intention, has now become possibly lost to what has become of the piece.
Still a figure of beauty, and tied to the original idea. However, how much of the initial idea is carried through the rest of the painting?
