Artwork Description

I chose to depict the perfectly enchanting place; between two perfect trees, that looks over the seemingly endless blue horizon, beyond you.
The perfect nature spot is yours anytime you want, right here in front of you; enjoy it...Ahhh...breath in, and breath out, and imagine yourself breathing that refreshing air, new air!
Allow your mind to settle, let your body relax, take a seat if you need, or lie down, do whatever it is that you need in order to let go right here, right now, for as long as you need, it's ok; life can wait.
Now that you are feeling relaxed, and more at ease, lets discuss what else this artwork could be exploring.
What else is transitioning?
Going between your old self, shedding what you don't like, and acquiring what you do like, in it's place; i.e. a total transformation for the better!
Now let me ask you dear reader; would not want the opportunity to be the ultimate version of yourself, if you were given it?!
Of course you would say YES; in a heartbeat!
Now that is how people who want to transition feel, they want to become that ultimate version of themselves; but someone decides that they are going to try, and stop them, from making this ultimate improvement to their lives; could you imagine someone took away your one chance to be the ultimate you, by putting up laws that block you?!
No way, would you stand for this!!
So, why do so many people not stand up for trans peoples rights, when what trans people want, is ultimately the same goal, as everyone who strives to be their ultimate selves?!
See, standing up for trans rights is so logical...
Since, you already stand up for rights like that for yourself, so it's not that much more effort to stand up for other people, especially when they share the same goal as you; i.e. becoming the best human they possibly can be!
So, you see dear reader; that trans rights are really the same rights as we all wish for, and therefore we should all seek protect the rights of our fellow trans human beings!

This artwork took me 6 weeks to create, and that is reflected in the price.

Artist Bio

"My art explores everything that is beautiful in this world...People, places, emotions, experiences, and opportunities."

- Yeshaya Dank.

I want beauty to be accessible to everyone, and for there to be the understanding that beauty exists everywhere, all the time, you just need to search for it and you will be dearly rewarded!

I paint the uncharted territory, the places and things that I've never seen painted like this before or from this angle.

I try to put many hidden gems into one painting, just waiting for you to discover.

Showing how everything has beauty, it's just waiting to be discovered.

Same with my artworks; with time you will discover new and beautiful details on each painting, which were previously hidden in plain sight!

The artists who inspire my work include:

Edvard Munch, Vincent Van Gogh, and JR.

What is my creation process?

I start by cutting stencils, to ensure that the base shapes and textures are perfect. I then paint using watercolour; up to 50 layers of different colours, in different areas. Allowing some areas to dry fast and some to try slower, creating different textures and shades of colour.

I use thin canvasses intentionally, as i am trying to create beautiful getaways that when not being used, can just blend back into the background again. They don't stick out at you, yet they are still easily accessed at a moments notice, exactly when you need them.

My total creation time, can be up to 3 months per painting.

I grew up in Sydney, Australia. I'm currently based in Victoria, Australia.

Thank you all so much for your ongoing support and I look forward to meeting all of you at some point in the near future! :)
