Queen with Ammonite Crown in orange

Queens Collection: Queens with Ammonite Crown in Orange

The name ammonite recalls the ancient Egyptian god Amun, whose ram's horns reminded people of antiquity of the spiral shape of these fossils. Even Pliny the Elder called them Ammonis cornua, thus linking them to the divine.

I imagine a queen whose crown is not made of metal, but of the spiral form of times long fallen silent. The ammonites rest upon her head like memories — each whorl a generation, each rib a report from the depths.

In my paintings, I bring this crown onto the page as visible thought: not merely as adornment, but as a chronicle, as a power that grows from age and endurance.

The Meaning of the Queens' Colors

Orange pulses with joy and vitality. An orange crown is an invitation to action, to warmth in leadership, to the energy that drives communities forward.
