This piece is filled with symbolism. The red in the red-violet represents love. The green in the green-blue represents life. The blue in the green-blue represents peace. The rose represents both love and life, while the peace sign speaks for itself. I'm at a place in life where I'm filled with peace, contentment, love, and a love of life itself. It only felt natural to get all those emotions out on paper.

This was created for Psychedelia-Club's ([link]) peace sign contest.

This is also my 20th deviation for the 100 Theme Challenge. ([link]) ...The theme for this piece is "Love"--Variation 1, Theme 2.

Soft pastels, 2011.

Original SOLD

I love your description, but I'm looking for the peace sign...is it hidden lol

I love this rose, it's a beautiful rendition, very emotive and responsive...I love the colors of what you're representing too :) Very Nice :)

The peace sign is unfortunately more hidden than I intended it to be! :-( If you were to draw lines separating all the teal sections from the purple sections, you would have the peace sign.

Ah, okay...I'll go take another look...thanks for that :) But that's kind of cool that it's hidden and you have to go search for it :) It makes you look even harder at the painting :)
