The original painting,
"The Phoenix Rising" was a large (30" x 40") original oil painting on canvas and was purchased by a very happy collector.
The Phoenix Rising is yet another example of allowing one's creative intuition to lead the way...moment to moment, brain to hand, hand to paint, paint to canvas, and on and on....
The beauty and power of the Phoenix Rising is depicted in this painting. In Egyptian mythology, the phoenix is a beautiful bird that lives for 500 years. It builds its own funeral pyre with wood and spices, sets itself on fire and rises reborn again from the ashes more beautiful than ever to live for another 500 years. The Phoenix Rising is a symbol for resurrection, immortality, triumph over adversity and the indomitable power of the human spirit.
I painted this phoenix toward the end of a long period of illness in the early 1990's. My energy and sense of well being miraculously began to return upon it's completion.
This image has been published on a wine bottle collection, CD music covers and in a national spiritual publication.
The frame enables display on your wall, desk or table...
