About the Item

This is about the inward light that all humans possess. It can shine brightly as it is shared but is usually not noticed from the outside. Kind of like when someone opens a door for you and your faith is renewed in humanity. This painting is packed full of symbolism of light: Sunflowers I have chosen sunflowers because they are light loving plants. They shine brightly, and bring joy to lovers of nature. I am not sure if sunflowers follow the sun, but if they do the symbolism is beautiful. The sunflower halo is brightest at the top and fades down like the morning light scanning down a mountain. A few of the sunflowers in the pots are not facing toward the viewer, they are hiding their light. Figure The figure is symbolically standing on an altar offering her inward light. She has a meditative inward pondering or peace. There is a vesica pisces between the flower halo and the stone altar. As her light shines in the vesica pisces she is combining heaven and earth. That same symbol is also in her arms which form a square, and the round wreath that hangs over the arms is the circle. If you stand back and squint your eyes, you will see that the figure kind of looks like a candle wick. The altar looks like the wax and the flower halo acts as the flame. Everything is centered around the figure's light. :: Painting :: Classical :: This piece comes with an official certificate of authenticity signed by the artist :: Ready to Hang: Yes :: Signed: Yes :: Signature Location: lower right corner :: Canvas :: Portrait :: Original :: Framed: Yes :: Framed size 24.0"h x 20.0"w x 2.0"d
