Very detailed, Kurt. It has a dark lure that rivets the eye and mind. .. the shadows from the fire escapes..?

were her eyes closed?
does it matter if she´s ascending or descending...?
have I seen you already in Jujuy with an arcabuz instead of a sword?
(great wings effect!!) :)

very ambitious!
the lil gal standing in deep autumn leaves gives scale to th angel with her satin wings
reminds me a bit of pre-cubist cezanne
thanks!

ps, this could be, if we are lucky, an oracle for America!

The bottom area is something new I'm experimenting with. It is actually small amounts of every colour used in the painting... Next is my fire escape vision of La Pieta...

also it was hand painted,
drawn as it were,
as a calligraphy,
and the zen like imperfection
of the linear shadows
conveys a natural aesthetic
that only a brush and kundalini energy
can convey

yes like the way the colors have rythm and reflect on oneanother
a painted mosaic

bring it on
we need some piety
