ANIMUS Print

I called this work ANIMUS from the Latin for life but in ancient times the word meant much more than just “life.” It stood for "the mind, intellect, consciousness, will, intention, courage, sensibility, passion, pride, the breath or in short...your soul." I did not begin this painting thinking of anyone’s soul but this is what was produced. As I sit and look into the painting I feel enticed into it’s world of endless swirling consciousness and then of my own consciousness. Hopefully, you will feel this effect and perhaps feel your own animus. The base coat of this work is Liquitex Basics and then layer upon layer of Golden acrylic paint creating a textured piece of art. Please email me if you have any questions. I am also open to offers. Thank you for your interest.
