POMONA







POMONA
digital, archival prints





close up, head shot



 Pomona is the Roman Goddess of fruitful abundance. 

I named my vegetable garden after her.  The garden is 22'x22', rather small.  It is organic and I tend it with hand tools.  The recent harvest was abundant for the size of the garden.  

The inspiration and reference for this digital painting is an ancient Roman statue.  The statue is approximately 1300 years old.  Prior to this Roman conception, the Greek Goddess Demeter had similar characteristics.  Prior to the Greeks the Sumerians named their goddess of agriculture Nibada.

I enjoy feeling a part of a stream of creations that have been developing for many centuries. 

I hope she will inspire you to be abundant in whatever field you endeavor to cultivate.
