There is fear. Fear is never an actuality; it is either before or after the active present. When there is fear in the active present, is it fear? It is there and there is no escape from it, no evasion possible. There, at that actual moment, there is total attention at the moment of danger, physical or psychological. When there is complete attention there is no fear. But the actual fact of inattention breeds fear; fear arises when there is an avoidance of the fact, a flight; then the very escape itself is fear.

Wow amazing! This seems like it can't be done by painting, only by computer programs. How were you able to paint it with all this details? Futuristic.

Thank you! I spent quite some time with this piece. It was way too big for the amount of details I tried to pack in.

Amazing painting...as always!
The sphere is like the child trying to cut off the umbilical cord from a uterus that provided them with vital supplies, but can no longer sustain a healthy living within it. The child must fly away, free, responsible for their own actions, decisions, mistakes and achievements...
It is the child, the lover, the suppressed employee, the person who seeks to change, rely on their strength and pursue their destiny.
Thank you for your art @gric!
