Featuring an exquisite apple codling moth crowned with a textured gold leaf halo against ripening golden apples, this vibrant painting invites you to contemplate the mysteries of nourishment and the heart. Symbolism: Moths remind us to trust our transformational process and seek the light in dark places, opening our eyes to the ephemeral beauty and freedom on the other side of change. I included many agricultural ‘pest’ moths in this collection because I was intrigued by our common appetites and believe these points of connection with the natural world are a crucial antidote to isolation and precursor to empathy. Together, these fruit and moth elements become meditations on love and portals to understand how to nurture ourselves and others. Details: This original acrylic and gold leaf painting on a 11 x 14 inch canvas panel comes framed in a captivating black closed-corner carved wood frame with gothic accents and antiqued gold leaf that measures 14.5 x 17.25 inches around the outside.
