Description
My tribute to Emily Bronte for writing Wuthering Heights`, a novel I can reread another 10 times and to Kate Bush for her song about it.
I was 13 and glued to the screen when Kate`s song was on the pop charts, she will be forever be `windmilling` through my mind in that fabulous white dress of hers.
To me, Kate and Cathy Earnshaw are always one, so I tried to unite them in this portrait; Cathy has come back to haunt Heathcliff, pleading with him to `Let her have it, let her grab his soul. It`s so cold on the other side of you`.
A bit darker than my usual work�
