The Banishment of Heaven
The Banishment of Heaven
Acrylic on Canvas
14" X 17"

The Banishment of Heaven is a South American creation-myth. Originally, the night sky was tied down between Earth and the blue skies above. People found the darkness and cold of space oppressive, until our heroine crawled up to the cord and released it, to float above where it is today. This painting, with a few others, was chosen for New American Paintings, Number 22 in 1999.
