At Peace with the Universe

2009
41 x 52 in.
oil on canvas

 

This painting portrays a soul who has found a moment of complete connection between their own microcosm and the macrocosm beyond. The sunrise explodes towards the spiral shells, whose structure contains the divine proportions that can be found throughout the natural world.

The spiral galaxy in the upper left part of the canvas casts a mirror image from the cosmos. Above the spiral shells, a soul floats in the ether. He has found his place in the universe, one that brings hope and infinite possibilities.
