The Portal

This figurative artwork titled "Portal" has a beautiful, soaring energy to it. It visually represents a threshold between heaven and earth, contrasting textured geometric blocks of red with an ethereal white angelic form reaching into vibrant blue spaces.

A mental conversation usually occurs between the artist and the canvas in their interaction: first, a plea for answers. Then a message of inspiration results in a work of contrasts.
The intensely hued red in the lower section of the image keeps me anchored to the physical plane: it brings about memories of hardships during human existence that I have been able to transcend when following my inner voice:

May the portal of your heart be protected by love so that only light may enter through it.

The blue upper portion of the painting shows Love consciousness extending a protective hand, allowing the soul, in the figure of an angel, to pass through the doorway to the Spirit.
