The dove in Cherished Adoration represents purity, harmony, peace and happiness. Above all, it represents the love of the married couple. It stands out from the geometric background, tiled with the Star of David, which represents the faith and bond that binds them in marriage. Along the outer border, a phrase of love is gracefully inscribed. The deep burgundy and cranberry colors used in this piece express love and passion.
Japanese prints, a necklace she had handcrafted years ago and patterns found in quilting served as traditional inspirations and reference points as the artist created this contemporary design.
