SALLY ELLIOTT In this series of paintings , I have chosen eggs as my subject matter. The egg has always held particular symbolic significance partly because it is a visual shorthand for a new life and unhatched potential. The egg brings hope and purity. It is a symbol of fertility and the circle of life. In some Asian cultures the egg is seen as a symbol of luck and wealth. I have chosen chicken, turkey,ostrich and emu eggs which are coming from an open heart surrounded by borders of flowers, shells and feathers. www.sallyelliottart.com |
