Bleary-eyed in the morning, this painting is usually one of the first things I see.
“In order to rise from its own ashes, a Phoenix first must burn.”
― Octavia Butler
Purchased in Bali, the painting’s intensity seems to convey so much. There are new secrets to discover, every time it catches my eye…
What do you see?

It looks like a tower about to topple whilst being consumed by flames 🙂
Thank you David! Great interpretation 🙂
Great painting
It suggests lots of interpretations
Thanks Luisa! It’s one of my favourites. Glad you like it 🙂
Whatever it depicts, it’s rising and blazing high, and that has to be a great start to the day.
Yes. It’s truly inspiring. Many thanks for your comment 🙂
I love artwork like this, It leaves so much open to interpretation.
Happy Monday. Hope you are well.
Thanks a lot Andrew. I’m happy you like it. The best artwork doesn’t reveal it’s meaning all at once… Hope you’re enjoying your trip. Looking forward to reading about it!
Having a fab time. Will be posting pics. Thanks
I see the worshiper at the temple. As with every period of Worship, the unseen flames of passion for their belief. Excellent and beautiful painting. Do you own this piece?
Thank you so much John! A wonderful interpretation of the piece. Yes this is one of the works of art hanging in my bedroom.
I see a ship rising from the currents of a storm, fighting for survival. Determined to ward off the wrath of Mother Nature. Beautiful painting. My view may be persuaded in that a powerful hurricane is targeting Florida in the upcoming days. We are going to ride it out.
Thank you for reading! I appreciate your thoughtful comment and lovely interpretation of the painting. Take good care and be safe 🙂
I love this painting!
So glad you like it 🙂
I see an old pagoda on a hill
Thanks for your interpretation Lloyd! I actually never thought of it as being on a hill, you’re helping me explore new things about the painting.
Wow! What a rush to wake up to that!!! It’s lovely and wild. I see a visceral eruption of the soul. First thing that came to my mind. It would likely change daily depending on my mood. As You say, I bet in every light, mood, shade and time of day it conveys something else. But it punched me in the heart in a good way right now!!! Thank You for the quote and for sharing! Cheers!!! 🙂
Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts on the painting! You described it so perfectly. It absolutely appears different every time I look at it. That’s why I love it! Your positivity is appreciated 🙂 I’m so happy you enjoyed the post!
Absolutely my pleasure!!! 🤗❤️😊
