Virgo

I had a strong feeling when painting Virgo to incorporate the Aurora Borealis (Southern Lights). Then it seemed suitable to bring in our smallest Paua, but possibly the prettiest - The Virgin Paua - Haliotis virginea - beautifully iridescent inside, distinguished with fine grooving running along the shell, with a prettily marked back that is not so likely to be encrusted with other marine growths.

A painting for a strong Virgo, proud of their own identity
