• In "The Beginning," the artist captures a moment of profound mystery and wonder amidst the vast expanse of a desert landscape. Dominating the scene is a solitary woman, standing tall and resolute amidst the rugged terrain. Her figure is illuminated by the warm glow of the sun, casting long shadows that stretch across the sand.  Behind her and in front of her, towering mountains rise majestically, their jagged peaks reaching towards the sky. A careening river winds its way through the desert, carving a path of life amidst the barren landscape. Above, the sky is alive with swirling clouds, their ethereal forms hinting at hidden depths and unseen forces.  At the heart of the composition lies a mesmerizing focal point: a swirling portal in the sky, its edges tinged with hints of otherworldly light. It beckons the viewer with an irresistible allure, promising secrets waiting to be discovered beyond its threshold.  Through masterful use of color and texture, the artist evokes a sense of awe and reverence for the natural world, while also hinting at the possibility of something beyond our understanding. "The Beginning" invites viewers to ponder the mysteries of existence and the boundless potential of the human spirit.
