Cradle of Civilization

Cradle of Civilization, 40x30
This image is closely aligned in color and feel with “The Road”, another image by this artist. They both suggest a dismal landscape devoid of life. In this abstract landscape the focus is pre-civilization, whereas “The Road” is a post apocalyptic tale. The brown rivers bounding the island mound in this abstract art work could be a Tigris and Euphrates reference, or a Georgia O’Keefe like reference to the female anatomy, and its role in the birthing process.
