PARTING WAYS WITH WHITE TARA

This piece has been with me for many years, I rarely showed her before with the excuse that she wasn't ready. Actually, I didn't want her to be ready which is very different. White Tara, goddess of compassion is now part of the Zegarra household. They made a special frame for her and even though there was some rebellion from us parting ways;  I was very dramatic when I was bringing her down, which didn't really surprise anyone hmmm... and she fell off the wall the first day they hung her,  breaking everything in sight! Still, I know she will be in good hands reminding her new environment of the need for some compassion in a troubled world. 

Some pieces are harder to part with than others, it seems like a part of you leaves with that painting but I've realized that art also has a destiny and a journey to complete.  

White Tara's journey continues in a beautiful home in Sacramento California, displayed with all the pride and appreciation an artist can only wish for.  

She's in good hands.
