American Diva

An original folk art design doine in acrylics by artist Amy Jordan. I painted this, and then realized I really was feeling like I was holding the world up by myself. Art is great for inner insight and therapy! The original has already been SOLD. All rights reserved - Copyright 2006.

Great symbolic painting Amy, in which you're holding the world....
