Intuitively created and inspired by the artist's own spiritual journey, "Awakening" is a mixed medium/acrylic painting on canvas that symbolically captures the profound beginnings of a transformative journey through spiritual exploration and divine connection.

Through the use of serene and harmonious hues, as well as the imagery of clouds shifting outward to reveal the central light, the artwork symbolizes the enchanting "honeymoon" stage. It represents the moment when the veil of perception is lifted, allowing the universe to unveil its boundless wonders.

The spiraling sun, crafted using metallic gold leaf flakes and embellished with beads, embodies the sensation of a luminous embrace of light that accompanies the exploration of one's relationship with the divine. It evokes a sense of awe, reverence, and a profound connection to the higher realms, resonating with the awakening of spiritual consciousness.
