36 YEARS

This oil painting celebrates a 36th birthday with an abstract and symbolic composition. At the center is a figure-like form that merges human and organic shapes, resembling a blossoming flower or a lotus floating on water. The fluid lines and soft curves create a sense of harmony and growth, symbolizing renewal and vitality. The use of vibrant colors—deep blues, yellows, reds, and greens—adds energy and warmth, evoking joy and celebration. In the background, a dynamic sky filled with warm red, yellow, and orange tones transitions into a serene horizon, suggesting the passage of time and the promise of new beginnings. A prominent yellow circular shape, reminiscent of the sun, highlights themes of illumination and life. The lotus petals and water elements symbolize purity, transformation, and the journey of life, making it a fitting metaphor for the milestone of a birthday. The painting beautifully blends abstraction with celebration, emphasizing the balance between personal growth and the vibrancy of life's moments.
