I'm a conceptualist who specializes in watercolor. This piece was done as a part of a watercolor demo at the Ylaaf booth at Veterans park for the July 4th spectacular. Using washes I show the process of how live painting creates a dynamic composition based on color, composition and context.

Title or Location: Hope
This mixed media work is a representation of Hope, in the figure of the Virgin Mary at the foot of the Cross. Hope is envisioned as a mother's heart, whose love is strong and still not defeated, even when facing adversity and heartbreak. The letters NICA represent the Greek work which is associated with victory.
