Spirits emerging Artwork

Vibrant hues and colours have the seductive allure to pull one's consciousness into realms beyond the ordinary. Sometimes, colour is there to exhibit the wonders of nature and life. In many ways life, at least the aesthetic quality of life, is so deeply connected with colour. Therefore, so much of being alive and feeling alive relates to expressing colour. This abstract piece was created adventurously, after many layers of paint were spontaneously expressed and projected onto the canvas. Brushstrokes danced across the canvas freely, while I was in a Zen-style state of consciousness; where everything was flowing naturally with the rhythms of my soul. The dark depths and buried layers under the upper surface of paint is what enhances the vibrancy of surface. The dark enriched and illuminated the light, in many ways this could be used as a poetic metaphor for the transcendence of our energies and spirits which lie deep under the skin of our beings; as the spark of life flies out of the darkness. The dynamic flows and transitions reflect desires and emotions being liberated and bursting to life, which simultaneously shed away the old and worn-out experiences. Thus engendering new life and new experiences. Colours have the magical power to evoke magical experiences and feelings. Personally, this painting was created to illustrate what evocations are possible.
