Intimate Kiss

$350.00

Small batch edition giclee, each detailed with 24k gold leaf and glow-in-the-dark paint to mimic the original painting

Size - 28×20

The original painting was commissioned by a wonderful human living in the foothills of North Salt Lake City, Utah. I spent a long time tinkering with how this painting was going to unfold. Now it’s one of my favorite paintings.

The name ‘Intimate Kiss’ took over a year  to be decided. Its meaning comes from the a Native American folk lore where it’s believed that the solar eclipse is likened to a grandmother and grandfather kissing. As a sign of respect they don’t watch the intimate exchange between their elders.

It’s commonly known that the divine feminine and the female body is controlled by the moon. Whereas the divine masculine and the male body are controlled by the sun. I wanted the painting to invoke the balance between the two.

The 24k gold leaf, based on the painting’s position atop a fireplace mantle, glistens as the sun rises over west side of the Rocky Mountains. And after a day charging in the sun, when the night comes, the moon glows in the dark.
