Iridescence
A woman in profile gazes upward through a cosmos rendered entirely in specialty iridescent paints. The Pebeo Prism creates cellular, honeycomb patterns in purples, blues, and grays. Fantasy Moon paints produce the distinctive crackled, metallic web effects across the surface in golds and silvers. Vitrail glass paints add translucent jewel tones—turquoise and coral that seem to glow from within. The woman's image is rendered in sepia or burnt sienna tones, her short geometric hair and multiple rings suggesting contemporary style, her upward gaze seeking something beyond the visible spectrum. The background moves from dark charcoal at edges to lighter lavender and blue-gray at center, creating atmospheric depth. White and silver dots scatter like stars or bubbles. The resin finish creates glass-like surface, making the iridescent paints shimmer with every viewing angle—this piece literally changes appearance as you move around it.

The upward gaze represents seeking, hope, prayer, or consciousness reaching toward transcendence. The woman's contemporary appearance (geometric hair, multiple rings) grounds mystical experience in modern identity. The cellular honeycomb patterns suggest biological structures, the microscopic beauty beneath skin, or perhaps the way consciousness is built from countless small units of perception. The crackled metallic web evokes neural networks, the visible electricity of thought, or the cracks through which light enters. Iridescence itself symbolizes multiplicity, the way truth changes depending on perspective, or consciousness that contains all colors.Interpretation
This technically sophisticated piece explores transcendence and the search for meaning within contemporary life. The specialty paints create effects impossible with standard acrylics—true iridescence, actual dimensional crackling, light-reactive color shifts—suggesting that some experiences require going beyond conventional materials or methods. The woman represents anyone seeking something larger than material existence, finding the mystical not by escaping the modern world but by looking more closely at its hidden dimensions. The piece is literally about seeing differently, about the magic revealed when we catch reality at the right angle.Poetry
She learned to see sideways—the only direction that reveals true color.
