This painting is my pivotal moment . The instant I chose to protect my peace, and in doing so, shifted into a new reality.
The red is turbulence, the fire of chaos and battles fought. 
But within it float darker teal-green clouds, the memories of those battles. 
They shimmer because they are not carried in bitterness, but released with love.
The colors were intentional....the shimmer too....a mirror.
Cutting across it all runs a luminous bridge, to me, like an Einstein–Rosen bridge, a cosmic passageway. 
When I painted it, I imagined the Bifröst from the movie Thor, a radiant bridge between worlds.
And so, Genesis emerged, not as a beginning from nothing, but as a rebirth. 
The word itself means origin... creation...the act of becoming...
For me, it is the crossing into a parallel universe where realities align differently.
Where battles dissolve into light. And where peace becomes the only constant. 
And not a negotiation.
