In Joy of Existence, a single dark tree rises like an axis between earth and heaven, its canopy alive with dotted orbs that read as fruit, eyes, and living cells all at once. Beneath it, the land rolls in rhythmic bands of ember red, ochre, moss green, and black, each ridge stitched with bead-like marks that feel both celebratory and deliberate, as if the terrain itself is singing. Above, an orange-to-crimson sky blooms with radiant rosettes, sunbursts and star-wheels, scattered across the firmament like a chorus of lights.
The work reads as a thanksgiving for being born into creation. Not as sentimentality, but as recognition. The tree becomes a symbol of life received, rooted in the given world, reaching into what is unseen. The dotwork moves between macro and micro, of stars and seeds, constellations and cells, suggesting that wonder is written into every scale of God’s workmanship. In a culture that rushes past its own existence, this canvas calls the viewer back to a simple, bracing gratitude: you are here; the world is real; and it was given.
On the wall, Joy of Existence brings warmth and uplift without losing seriousness. On light walls it reads bright, clean, and optimistic, an immediate statement for living rooms, entryways, and family spaces. On charcoal or deep-toned walls, the oranges intensify and the background gains a rich, graphic depth, giving the piece a more dramatic, gallery-weight presence for studios, executive offices, and bold modern interiors. The vertical format makes it ideal for tall wall zones between windows, beside shelving, or as a feature piece in a foyer.
Available in six vertical formats: 40" × 60", 12″ × 18″, 16″ × 24″, 20″ × 30″, 24" × 36", 32″ × 48″.
