This image is so sexy. I love the strong contrasts, its like sinking within yourself, and when you think you have hit the bottom you realise you have found the light and beauty. Frequently in finding ourselves we find the freedom, we find out that there is nothing else but us, and honesty towards ourselves.

Hey! I love the depth! Open to so many interpretations. I feel I am getting lost either in a maze of arched pillars or bamboo trees! Cool!

Not the usual palette of colours that you use, so its quite interesting to see~
I can never get past the fact that skyscrapers keep flashing up in front of my eyes when I see you paint like this - some sort of memory I guess from places I've been to.
Thanks for sharing!
I've been waiting!

I love that green color and how it stands out against the darker background

Really nice use of contrasting colors - the white blended with the green provides an eerie, ghostly mood on top of the murky darkness. The blue and the yellow ochre lend a life-like flicker to the green. The flesh-tone coral really sets the picture off, and draws the eyes in many different directions.
As I look at the painting, I am also wondering - what size is this? How did you capture the vibrant colors? Was this piece scanned? Photographed? Was there any manipulation to restore the colors to what you are actually seeing?
Great work!

This one is a 9 x 12 in. piece on canvas board. I photographed it under natural sunlight (late afternoon), as it gives good results in terms of vibrancy. No manips... just resized it and added the border.
Thanks so much, Kirk. I truly appreciate your kind words.
