About the work
Painting Description:
“In this painting the artist attempts to capture the tri-unity of mankind, the three personalities. The lit candle represents the personality that everyone sees and knows. The unlit candle represents our dark sides, which we attempt to hide from the rest of the world. The third personality, the conscience, remains invisible and attempts the maintain balance between the two. The artist has skillfully employed a combination of bright and dull shades in water and cloud formations to add to the mysticism.”
