©2006 Shari Morfin - This is a contemporary, mixed media, original work of art perfect for bringing beauty into your home's decor. My goal in creating this piece was to mix the inverse goddess photo of Tara, the Goddess of Peace and Protection and the mother of all Buddhas, in a pattern over the flowers with added line elements to create a clean and interesting work. I wanted to use the traditional asian color palette of red and turquoise. Joyous is a one of a kind work, which will not be reproduced on canvas again (except possibly for my own personal collection.) A glossy print is made on Kodak Endura Archive paper, the emulsion of which is then heat & pressure bonded to museum quality canvas and gallery wrapped on a wooden artist frame and sprayed with a protective coating.
