Jubilation

This is the first piece I created with the intent of developing a style recognizable as a “Melanie.”

It expresses a feeling of an epiphany. It is the letting go of old habits and exploring new ideas.

I began by combining memories of past world travels and meeting multi-cultural women along the way.

I also tried to incorporate the stained glass windows of my traditional Catholic-Judeo upbringing and the windows found in various houses of religious worship.

Do you think this painting can assist other women to interpret their own spirituality?
