"Communion" Cinnabar Moth Painting 10x8

Transform your walls with this cinnabar moth and mushroom painting by Aimee Schreiber. Featuring an exquisite red and black cinnabar moth (tyria jacobaeae) with a gold leaf halo surrounded by colorful glowing mushroom gills, this vibrant painting invites you to embrace and celebrate your own transformation. 

Symbolism: Moths remind us to trust our transformational process and seek the light in dark places, opening our eyes to the beauty and freedom on the other side of change. Mushrooms remind us to notice the interconnection of everything and celebrate our cycles of growth, decomposition, and rebirth.

Details: This original artwork is a one-of-a-kind acrylic and gold leaf painting on 10 x 8 inch (25.4 cm x 20.3 cm) stretched canvas. The painting wraps around the edges and comes framed in an elegant wood gold leaf float frame that measures 12 x 10.25 inches on the outside and 1.75 inches deep. The piece arrives ready to hang with a wire hanger so you can enjoy the art right away!

Using quality professional-grade materials, this gorgeous painting was made with an eye for detail and a love for nature's beauty. The rich colors and dramatic textures together with natural elements, graphic forms, and metallic gleam create an artful, mysterious look that would look at home in an eclectic gallery wall or gracing a special wall on its own.

Please note: Colors vary from screen to screen and are represented as accurately as possible. The metallic leaf and glossy, protective varnish create interesting, shimmering effects depending on the angle of the viewer.

Experience the profound beauty of nature and metamorphic magic with "Communion," part of a new collection of paintings featuring moths and mushrooms from around the world. The intricate details, earthy colors, and rich symbolism of these paintings will uplift your space and your spirit. 

I wanted to explore themes of connection using moths, monochromatic palettes and mushrooms, the ultimate connectors. This poem is based on the titles of the twelve paintings in this collection. 

Everything

Everything together
in totality
nothing here is separate
in reality

all the notes belong
in this strange and silken song
harmonizing wholeness–
life’s vitality

Moments in cohesion–
spacious unity
kinship and communion–
form’s integrity

pieces all connect
as our mirrors all reflect
all we really have is
commonality
