This painting is a visual prayer. A transmission of the soul’s quiet knowing that even in despair, a miracle is possible. It is the painting I return to when I feel caught in old patterns and the illusion of separation. It reminds me that perception can shift in an instant. That prayers are answered. This is the painting that heals me. Not by changing the world, but by softening the way I see it.
“Each painting is a living mirror of consciousness, revealing its truth in response to the depth of presence that meets it. When awakened, the yellows burn bright, and the subtle oranges and pinks turn neon, as the soul reaches toward Heaven, longing to alchemise pain into light.”
