#TBT
Back in 2011 during the month of July in Edmonton I started this painting of Zeus after a series of events that had happened in my life, which there was a strong overwhelming obligation to complete this piece...a divine intervention I believe. Severe thunder showers, flash floodings and hail the size of golfballs reigned onto the city as I proceeded to create this concept...
As I incorporated each symbolic asset I learnt lessons in this NEW path that was illuminated before me, cause when I got to the bottom of the canvas an extreme force took over and I finished with these symbols at the bottom of the throne with each line being acknowledged with the sound of thunder getting louder and louder as I completed the last one. Hmmm I felt one with the energy that surrounded me, and there was a deep rooted understanding of who I was at that moment. There was history behind this, I kept learning this as life progressed and it wasnt until a year later that I was in a meeting with someone, I showed him this painting and he gave me insight into this symbol:
The upright triangle represents the male energy and the downward triangle represents the female energy that is within us, overlapping them creates some sorta key...A universal balance. If you do enough digging you will know that this is also known as the Star of David, the Seal of Solomon, and the Star of Lucifer.
Now this painting hangs above my workspace as a constant reminder of the creator energy that exists in the world, this universe, in you and me...I know it is something that is very powerful and attainable with understanding.
Without darkness you would not understand light...Without light you would not appreciate darkness.

TBT...
#TBT !AH Remembering when I did this piece back when they just wrapped up the 911 tribunal on the Bush administration. I read an article in the Edmonton Journal where they had President Bush testify on stand and journalists had asked him after how he felt about doing that. He had replied, 'I enjoyed it.' My thoughts were, dude enjoyed deceiving the world for profit gains...It got me provoked to creating this piece depicting a street artist spraying 'Seek Truth' on a wall as though saying, 'Sometimes you gotta flip the perception to gain truth.' Then a lot of theories started arising from all this incident...The world changed dramatically ever since. God speed. Probably the one and only political piece I've done, I was bent on this style for a min. #HA!

Checked out the Vancouver Art Gallery today...
Super cool to check out the Italian paintings exhibit today with friends, inspiring work from the Renaissance by famous painters. Amazing detail to capture texture and material of garments, it just blows my mind the amount of detail put into these works up close to be appreciated from a distance for it to all come together. Feeling motivated...

Saturday morning reflections...
#HA! I use to think of spiders as little insects that were creepy and bothersome, but given my healthy respect on life that all things are either a sign/symbolic in nature I've learnt to see it in another light. Like the spider to its web #iAM a #Creator, a weaver of life's fate...To understand your shadow self, you nurture your creativity/patience/receptivity to life, consistently creating #NEW webs to capture your dreams. #Goodmorning #Reflections #InventoryConnections
