The painting "EXPECT DARKNESS TO SURROUND YOU ONE DAY" portrays the Astronaut in a challenging situation in the middle of the ocean. The painting suggests that one day darkness will surround us all, but it is important to keep moving forward with confidence, even if it's slowly. The astronaut holds a burning candle, serving as a guiding light in the midst of a foggy and uncertain environment. Despite the darkness surrounding him, he remains steadfast and determined with his pink inflatable flamingo by his side.
