The Unlimited Potential of the Human Spirit

 

"Seasons"  

Original Acrylic on canvas - 48" x 48"

Symbolism: Circle - cyclic aspect to time, nature and evolution - forming the complete circle, no beginning, no end - process of continuation. The tree is expressing the four seasons, the cycle of time- birth, death and regeneration - the roots of the tree are being slowly washed away by the tide, exposing it's foundation. The moon cycles - reflecting on  the tide, effecting emotions and the nature of events. The birds in the background migrate - moving through phases (moon) sunrise, mid-day, sunset, in the center the blue bird nesting and giving birth forming new generations - that again migrate in continuous movement through the cycles of life. The snow, forming small streams that nurture the valleys, forming rivers and lakes, all ultimately flow into the ocean and become apart of the tide - determining the weather, the quality of energy that shapes experience.
