About The Original Painting
Painting Title: Surrender
Created: 2015
Medium: Acrylic on canvas
Size: 16" x 20"
Experience the profound beauty of spiritual surrender in this expansive piece from the Beautiful Bodies series. A skeletal figure arches backward in a graceful backbend, emerging from the dark earth while reaching toward a star-filled sky. Below, the word SURRENDER anchors the composition, emphasizing how physical surrender can lead to spiritual connection with the greater forces of nature.
Each element of the composition embodies the act of letting go. The figure's dramatic backbend demonstrates both physical flexibility and spiritual openness, while the transition from earth to stars represents the journey from grounded reality to cosmic connection. The pose itself becomes a bridge between the physical and spiritual realms.
This artwork belongs to the broader Beautiful Bodies collection, a series that invites viewers to embrace the meditation "Be In Your Body and See with Your Heart." The skeletal form symbolizes our fundamental connection to nature and our ancestors, while the featured heart represents our innate capacity for nurturing relationships through surrender and trust.
The artist's thoughtful color palette carries deep symbolism throughout the piece: black tones ground the work in wisdom, white elements emphasize our universal interconnection, and red accents pulse with passionate energy.
This piece continues the historical artistic tradition of "memento mori," joining a legacy of macabre celebrations of life and death that spans from neolithic art to contemporary works. However, it transcends the traditional somber tone of this genre by infusing it with the transformative power of surrender.
Perfect for yoga studios, meditation spaces, or anyone on a path of spiritual development, this print serves as a beautiful reminder of the strength found in letting go. The vertical composition draws the eye from earth to stars, inviting viewers to explore their own journey of surrender and connection.
Materials and Technique:
The composition artfully combines layers of black, ethereal washes of color, and varied dots and lines, complemented by subtle touches of realism.
