The Talisman defined can can either be an object, that is thought to have magic powers and to bring good luck or a person regarded as representing and inspiring a particular group. I intended to create a dreamlike abstract painting full of movement in which the sculptural forms in black appear to be a group of beings entering this realm through a portal, from the light, with the principal figure ,The Talisman, in the distance, whose magic powers brings the good luck. By including metamorphosing shapes and figures in the lower foreground, it appears as if winged horses and a legion of beings were emerging from another realm. Simultaneously motion and calm in an abstract world of no actual definition. I've always been drawn to abstract symbolism and spiritual paintings. I drew inspiration the work of Alberto Giacometti, Odilon Redon, and Franz Kline whilst creating this artwork. To achieve the motion effects in this painting, I used a wide variety of brushes, palette knives, and scrapers. I created the viscosity through applying large amounts of linseed oil into the oil paint. This was the first painting from a series called “ They Come From the Light’ that I have made. This is an oil painting on canvas supplied with fitted hanging gear and it will be packaged in a crate for transportation.

This July I’m having a solo exhibition of ‘Abstracted Landscapes ‘ paintings in a gallery in Mayfair, London. I have put a few pieces on short term significantly reduced prices, so please look through all my works to find the deals..... If there are any pieces you may like which are not reduced you can always try making an offer … Some pieces I will take deals, others not, especially the ones I spent forever on … Micheal Haran studied Fine Art at The Slade School of Fine Art, UCL from 1989 to 1991. Micheal lives and works in London and his work in held in many private collections internationally. Micheal’s artistic practice encompasses a painterly spiritual cosmology, in which the journey of inner evolution and growth is repeatedly explored. Employing the full spectrum of abstractionist modes of representation, his work surveys the depths of the collective unconscious through subtle allusions to personal experiences of transformation. Aesthetically informed by Post-Impressionism, Dadaism, Surrealism, and Abstract Expressionism, Micheal Haran works across a wide variety of 2D media with a focus on oil or acrylic on canvas. He often merges the verbal and the visual, a process through which he either distils and unites philosophical ideas with pictorial symbolism, or playfully engages in themes of dreams, inner landscapes, and the realm of the soul. Conceptually, the artist is continuously inspired by his deeply transformative experiences with shamanism, notions of wisdom associated with ancient cultures, the archaeology of the sacred, and a plethora of musical genres and the Beat Movement writers. The promise of a calmer inner life and the desire for a more humanitarian world permeate his paintings, which instils feelings of tranquillity, peace, and optimism. Micheal lived in Iquitos, in the Peruvian Amazon, for two and a half years. During this time he developed a strong connection with Amazonia and its indigenous peoples. This passion has led him to dedicate himself to both producing art and raising funds for the protection of the Amazon and other ecological biomes. Love is at the very core of Micheal’s practice. Be it love for life or love for art making, love is always made visible in his canvases: dreamlike images of flowers, in situ landscapes or ocean scenes, poetic abstract inner visions, and bold written messages. In all of its possible forms of manifestation, the theme of love underscores and drives Micheal’s oeuvre.
