The Nature's Gesture II

Painting
2021
Oil on canvas
20"x16"
This is a painting with inspiration from mother nature. I like to observe the silent movements of nature. They lead lives at their own pace, continuously. Every moment and every movement is revealed in its entirety physically. A series of organic lines that are not geometric and linear are their gestures, their lives. As a human being living in a society of material, commercial, mass production, and anonymity, I am not a great person, but I accumulate meaningfully day by doing what I can do at my own pace. Nature's gestures in this repetitive routine give me great comfort.
