OLGA VOLCHKOVA
The Holy Spirit of Herbs, 2015
Acrylic on wood
24" x 30"
Notes from the artist:
Twelve figures representing natural antibiotics form The Holy Spirit of Herbs. The painting is in the "festival icon" format, used for a unifying theme, where twelve smaller compositions frame the central figure. Clockwise from the upper left, the saints along the edges represent usnea, ginger, rosemary, sage, garlic, echinacea, turmeric, Oregon grape, juniper, aloe vera, wormwood, and golden seal.
