This painting was inspired by my wish to have the masculine and feminine energies in balance and harmony, through compassion. It followed a story that my brother told me about being rescued on the high seas after a sudden storm overtook his fishing boat and threatened to sink it. A pod of dolphins suddenly arrived and calmly accompanied the boat back to the harbor. It was evidence of the beauty and harmony that can come about through compassion. even through cross-species communication. In this painting, the female dolphin is in a state of radiance while the masculine dolphin honors her.
Message; Humanitarianism will be the salvation of our species and our planet. Similarly, cooperation between the species as well as the sexes is absolutely imperative to our continued existence. This will occur as we accept within ourselves both the masculine and feminine sides of ourselves and become whole persons.
