Murex takes its name from the ancient Mediterranean sea snail once used to create the rare Tyrian purple dye—a color reserved for kings and priests. This 14-inch round painting reflects that royal history through swirling violets, lavenders, and soft pearlescent tones that seem to pulse like living dye in water. The piece celebrates divine identity and worth, sealed in Polycrylic for a luminous, lasting finish.

“But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.” — 1 Peter 2:9
