Key value factors: For living or recently deceased artists, limited edition size and gallery representation drive value. Signed and numbered prints from smaller editions are most desirable.
From the expanded Woman Calendar series — a composition capturing the specific quality of a September afternoon, that particular late-summer early-autumn moment when the light begins to angle differently, the heat softens, and the season's turning is first registered in the body and the senses. Oda's seasonal compositions are sensitive to these subtle transitional moments rather than simply marking the four cardinal seasons: September afternoon has its own character, distinct from both August and October, a golden-hour quality that combines summer's warmth with autumn's approaching clarity. Her goddess figure in this season inhabits the afternoon light with characteristic physical ease and spiritual presence.
