Filipino master series #1: Ocampo in complementary colors

Tapos na! Had to rework this to bring out the reds and greens. Lesson learned: ask questions, mas okay makulit kaysa umulit. #painting #acrylic #complementarycolors
Who turns heads when we pray?
16×20 inches
Acrylic on canvas

We pray, often with a litany of petitions or thanks.  We surrender to the Mighty Hand that controls everything, but really, who is this person/being/creator who has the last say?  And are we really frozen statues who have no say in how our lives turn out?

Adaptation of Filipino master HR Ocampo’s “Lunar Ritual”.
