About the cover

Superbly drawn, a woman faces front, resting her head on her knees and grasping her ankles. A rainbow of colors illuminates her youthful contours as she emerges from a dark background. Aricadia paints this radiant portrait. “Woman is a body with soul, passion and desire.”—Aricadia

Women’s Body. Oil and acrylic on canvas, 27.6" x 39.4", Aricadia. Aricadia’s paintings can be viewed at www.novica.com.
