Yin and yang (or yin-yang) is a complex relational concept in Asian culture that has developed over thousands of years. Briefly put, the meaning of yin -yang is that the universe is governed by a cosmic duality, sets of two opposing and complementing principles or cosmic energies that can be observed in nature. Balance of life, competing and complementary forces of dark and light, sun and moon, male and female.
I have used this ancient concept with my painting of a fantasy male and female fan tailed goldfish. I accentuated the shimmer in the water as they swirl around each other with some gold metallic leaf. The characters on the banner represent happiness and together with the fish, a much desired Feng Shui is instantly invited to your home.
I admit I'm a little obsessed with different cultures around the world. Fits right into my love of fantasy and myths of all kinds.
I believe this piece should hang in a prominent wall as a welcome to future guests, but most importantly, to the family who dwells within it.
