Description
Multi media on canvas, 84×60
“The title is inspired by a wonderful song by Van Morrison. In this painting, I depicted a woman surmounted by a boat that has crossed vast seas and descended many rivers, those of life. It was after finishing the painting that I titled it this way, because the song seemed to describe the main character so well, a very inspiring woman who has lived a lot.
“You have crossed many waters to be here
And, you drank, and you drank from the fountains of innocence
And, experienced, you know perfectly well.
You are the queen, queen of the slipstream,
“The Queen of Slipstream”.”
Yvan Genest
