Finished Piece: Orisha Oshun


It's amazing how a piece can transform during the journey between idea to finished piece. I started painting this with every intention of staying true to the sketch. But then I started to explore and make mistakes. Those mistakes led me to this finished piece and I'm happy with the way it came out.

Oshun, whose signature colour is yellow, is the Youruba deity of fresh waters, love and prosperity. I'm hoping that she smiles on me in the months ahead.
