"Meditation" is a young woman emerging from the bath, the shower, the pool, the lake, the ocean. Draped in a large towel that she holds to herself, she allows her mind total freedom. Contained in her character is innate strength. She is the personification of grace, elegance, and intelligence. The combination defines human potential.

There is a suspension in the balance of the body on one foot -- a moment of abandonment to thought. Once she gathers her thoughts together, she raises her brow and head and is ready for decisive action. She is eternally poised at the beginning of her adult life and represents our hopes for a positive future.

"My work with the female figure is symbolic of humankind at its finest. Not just a physical interpretation, I try to imbue the female figure, face, and gesture, with intelligence, vigor, and all the qualities that make up a fulfilled human being." - George Anthonisen
