The Heart of Venus oil on canvas, gallery wrapped 14x16 inches / 35.5x40.5 cm cdn +shipping |
Why Venus? Well, I am a big fan of C.S. Lewis' Silent Planet trilogy and in one of the books the protagonist travels to Perelandra - aka Venus. Lewis imagined the planet to be a watery planet with floating shifting islands everywhere. And I felt that a unique tree would be at the heart of this world.
