“Touched by Love”
Acrylic
stretched canvas
20 x 24 inches
The purpose of refining a fine metal, such as gold, in fire is not to change its original composition, but to purify it; through the harsh flames will emerge a material infinitely more precious. I have seen this process accomplished and it is often with great care, even love, on behalf of the craftsman to create the most beautifully pure finished object. In that way this painting, predominately a fiery gold, represents the love and care of a craftsman over his work.
