“Transcendence in Blue”
16 x 12 inches | Acrylic on Canvas | 2025
A rhino beetle rises with wings unfurled in Transcendence in Blue, a visually striking meditation on strength, transformation, and sacred structure. Painted in layers of vivid cobalt, ultramarine, and gold, this piece fuses the natural power of the rhinoceros beetle—a symbol of resilience and ancient wisdom—with a geometric cathedral of light and form.
The beetle, rendered with soft earth tones and firm presence, hovers against a backdrop of sharp lines, mirrored symmetry, and crystalline pathways that evoke both architecture and the metaphysical. Its flight suggests not just movement, but metamorphosis—an emergence from grounded solidity into radiant elevation.
Ideal for collectors drawn to insects, sacred geometry, and spiritual symbolism, this original acrylic painting invites contemplation of the internal strength it takes to rise, evolve, and transcend.
