Welcome back, my dear Sue!!! So glad to see you here! ‘As Above…’ is an on going series I began a couple of years ago [you can see here: https://marinakanavaki.com/category/as-above-so-below/%5D but hadn’t done any for some time now. Working on ‘In Limbo’ lead me back to it. In a sense they both have the same origin. So happy you like it! Happy September, new week and 3rd supermoon [in a row] ahead! 🙂 xxxx

But I found one of my old paintings of a tree I did a couple of years back.. I too named it the same.. As above so below.. How cool is that.. Hope this link works to take you to the slide its on in my gallery.

As always I love these pieces. This is the first time I’ve noticed though that the ‘reflection’ is not a true reflection at all. This, along with the more obvious change of colours has me asking all sorts of questions in my mind about what you were signifying by this – questions for which I don’t want answers because that’s the whole point of art, is it not? To question for oneself the meaning for us and for life. I love your work because it always provokes such thoughts!

Ken, my friend, it makes me so happy what you’re saying and your observations… of course I wouldn’t give answers! I chose to speak in shapes and colors, not words, so why verbalize it! Thanks so much, my dear friend! Happy BRIGHT new week ahead! 🙂

Above… a clear reference to your Cloud #9 home on Mt. Olympus.
Below… that would be Earth, where we humble mortals dwell.
Which leads me to conclude that your work is a “gift from the gods”– well, OK, one in particular– which enriches our lives here below.
In fact, I feel so “enriched” when I gaze upon your work, I’m worried I may have to pay additional income tax. I must consult with my accountant… : )
Lovely work, my dear Marina!! : )

Interesting how the reflection appears as I too examined more closely. Thus, Isadora’s comment sparked a thought I hadn’t considered. Although I don’t think that was your intent, I also realize that artist’s appreciation knowing what other’s see/think rather than sharing their own thoughts about representation. Well done!

It’s true that I never describe or offer an interpretation of my work. Clues are given of course in the titles …usually, but this is as far as I wish [or not in this case] to ‘influence’ the viewer. There’s a multitude of emotions a painting can evoke, why guide them? Not to mention that many times a painting reveals hidden paths even from its ‘creator’! So, yes, I always enjoy reading interpretations of something I did. Thank you, my dear friend and thank you for always being so supportive! 🙂
