Original artwork description:

This painting is a mirror to The Golden Thread I, and together, they make a whole, two opposite polarities that cannot exist without each other. They both started their existence straight onto the canvas, without a sketch or preparation. Each of them appeared at a perfect time, fulfilling the inner inquiries and closing the cycle while simultaneously opening a portal for something new.

We often juxtapose light and dark. Dark is often perceived as something negative, something we need to get rid of. Light is perceived as hope, life, and good… but the more I think about it, the more I understand how interconnected they are.

How important it is to walk both, how impossible it is to truly appreciate light without walking through sorrow and learning to honor the heavy, learn from it, and allow all the colors of life to be present and cherished. Turbulent times shape us, allowing us to navigate the darkness with the light in our hearts. They teach us to live in the moment. They also might swallow us all if we lose hope—a fragile balance of light and dark.

This painting belongs to the series "Paintings from the Deep Unknown."

"Paintings from the Deep Unknown" is a collection of images appearing to me during meditation.
It's a journey of infinite trust, guided by immense curiosity, and written on the canvases in the language I speak best - painting.
Like gifts, these paintings came to me fully formed, waiting to be loved into a physical form.
I know they're coming from a place of true love, a longing shared by many.
While we may catch glimpses of it here and there, every heart's deepest desire is to bathe in it with every cell of our being.
My deepest hope is for these pieces to transport you to that special space within, from where they traveled onto my canvases, allowing you to tap into the deep harmony they brought to me.
