Artist's Concept:
"Re-creation of Being" is a design adaptation of the original oil painting entitled "Being" which was created in 1997.
Like all the art that I create, "Being" is a reflective record of my on going pursuit of truth. As I touch each new level of consciousness on this inner journey, usually a new art style forms and develops within. So, it was "Being" and "Re-creation of Being".
They portray my vision of the fundamental elements of life and express the interaction and relationship of all beings in the family of the world.
Science tells us that life's fundamental elements are comprised of a combination of particles of matter and energy. I trust that the original painting captures the spirit of this essential truth… and that the integrity of its theme is conveyed through this environmental adaptation positioned amidst the humanity and daily life of one of the world's busiest and most vibrant cities.
