Abstract pour painting using green, black, red, and gold acrylic with pouring medium on 6x8 inch rectangle wood board, 10/19/2020
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 Oggun, Orisha God of the Yoruba Tribe, part of the Santeria culture, religion and traditions of African diaspora.
Oggun is a powerful, fierce warrior who defends his people and fights against injustice. Ogun has the intelligence and creativity to invent tools, weapons, and technology.
Place this painting on your altar or your sacred space in your home or office. Good for prayer and focused meditation.
