Painted in Ibiza, Spain

I began to form this painting on its abstracted background having both dynamic movement & calm stillness in mind. When I look at the painting after finishing I see these elements - long legs in full action while her upper torso more upright & static majestically holds everything together like the centre of an hourglass, above a long neck winding to her moon like head, calmly reflecting light, inner thoughts & overseeing life below. Her hair completes the balance - a wild sweep as a comets tail streaking through the sky. A mixed state of mind & movement.
