The edges of the painting are coloured and made for chunky 1½" stretchers which provides a truer impression  of the original work. Such an image gave me the freedom to play around with it even more, making each piece a unique work of art. For this reason, each image will be dated at the time of embellishing.

Within the 327 copies are contained size 6" cuts all along the image - vertically, pasted onto different sizes of  canvas and  completed as original art works.

The woman figure in this painting represents a celebration of God's creation. She is like a blossom. I prefer painting women this way, mystical and beautiful. The light coming from above represents divine power. The piece itself has a very interesting history. I started painting it in 1998 and had done several layers but had left it uncompleted until 2001 when I
finally finished it two nights  before going to Hawaii, where we had the image printed. I was simply afraid of ruining such a good painting. It had attracted so much attention and so  many people wanted to have it that it was not hard to decide
to make it a limited edition only. She will enlighten every home with her divine beauty.

Below are detail of original version and samples of special copies.
