Dreaming-of-her-birth by Charleen Touchette

Mothers-to-be spend 9 months imagining the baby growing inside them. "Dreaming of Her Birth" by American Artist Charleen Touchette is a mixed media mural 108 x 48 inches. The multilayered painting weaves images of the growing fetus with a winding umbilical cord and handmade papers embedded with butterflies, plants, ferns and flowers. "Dreaming of Her Birth" was exhibited in the "O'Keeffe Revisited" show at The Roswell Museum in New Mexico in 1994 which showcased the art of Charleen Touchette as one of the featured artists.
