Energy - Day 15 of the 30 Paintings in 30 Days


Energy Part III by April M Rimpo

Half way through the challenge and here is the completion of my triptych Energy.

The composite painting is pose seven in Sun Salutation, the Cobra. I've learned the breathing exercise in this pose activates the sacral chakra (energy center) between the belly button and pelvis. Some sources associate this chakra with yellows and other with orange. I decided to focus on yellow and include some orange colors as well. The breathing exercise in this pose is said to radiate personal power, self esteem, willfulness, and energy.

    1. Thank you. Making the whole work while the pieces working independently has been an challenge in and of itself. I think I've succeeded on most, but not all.

    1. Thank you, Rolina. My mind likes puzzles and figuring how to present those puzzles to others. However, it has kept the 30 in 30 a fun undertaking.

  6. I love the joining of these, especially the red-line framing as both accent and continuity.
