Cr(e)aters of War

Abstract pour painting using red, black, silver, and white acrylic with pouring medium on 6x8 inch square wood board, 10/24/2020

Made with Primal Flow Paints, a small family-owned business that I enjoy supporting. The more paintings I sell, the more I get to support their business. :)

Mini-painting will be finished with high gloss varnish (water-based) before shipping. The varnish provides brilliance to the painting, enhances the colors, and protects it from dust, UV rays, and deterioration so it can last for many years.

Inspired by the spirit energy of Elegua, Orisha God of the Yoruba Tribe, part of the Santeria culture, religion and traditions of African diaspora.

Eleggua is the owner of all roads, crossroads, and doors. He is the power that allows all of the ache in the universe to move from point A to point B.

Place this painting on your altar or your sacred space in your home or office. Good for prayer and focused meditation.
