Musique: Muse of Music

Musique: Muse of Music, 27”x 24”x 17,” Fired clay with stains
Private collection: Rhode Island USA

One of our great sources of inspiration is music of all kinds.  When we allow our minds to drift to the sounds we hear, imagery begins to flow through.  We envision this muse lost in the beauty of the music only she can hear, but that she sometimes shares with us.  The relief work on her back shows music manifest into the free flow of imagination and beauty through artwork.  Some of this relief work was inspired by the ceiling frescoes of the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy.
