Bombay 2 (Good Woman) Origin of Woman 9 by Marilyn Wells

Bombay 2 (Good Woman)  Origin of Woman 9 by Marilyn Wells, accompanied by my haiku, evokes a celestial dance where day lilies transform into stars, and silver moonbeams animate the gentle shiver of cottonwoods, inviting you into a serene, reflective universe where nature's subtle movements resonate with deep, universal themes.

day lilies are stars…

cottonwoods shiver silver

moonbeams down, around

A new version of Bombay, which means "Good Woman" a name derived from Mumbadevi, the city’s patron Hindu goddess, a great Mother Goddess, the city’s patron Hindu goddess, the Great Mother Goddess. This painting is an ode to the enduring spirit of the 'Great Mother Goddess', weaving her presence not only through the vibrancy of the colors but also through the subtle narrative embedded within each stroke. It reflects a journey of discovery, where each viewer's interpretation can lead to personal revelations about the divine and the everyday.. 

The glazes layer not just color, but also meaning, creating a canvas where time and space intertwine and expand, inviting viewers to reflect on the fluid boundaries between the tangible and the ethereal.
