http://www.artq.net/ArtistWork.asp?artist_id=FYMDA1409124484024650 Phillip Speciale - Online Art Gallery - Artist Portfolio en-us Sun, 05 Apr 2026 19:16:03 PST http://www.artq.net/ArtView.asp?artwork_id=HUER5435124521034242 Seasons are changing. Winters are longer, Spring has disappeared, Summers are becoming too hot and Fall is not long enough. In this piece the Artist balances the seasons in four equal parts as it was originally intended before man began making damaging changes to the environment. Typical seasonal winters are now replaced with dangerously freezing temperatures, April showers don't bring May flowers and fresh Springtime smells no longer exist in the air we breathe. Summers intense heat is blistering and the beauty of fall is dissipating.
This makes the Artist realize just how sacred the seasons are and how much they are remembered for what they were meant to be. Man tends to adapt to their environment and therefore accepts it rather than change it. What we have left is perceived as normality and very much taken for granted.
The Artists surreal rendition of the sacred heart is featured with a cross made of nails and copper. A human heart with wings takes flight among a blood red background. It's surrounded by abstract acrylic paintings depicting the four seasons and four butterflies flutter around hopefully symbolizing a new beginning, like the rose growing from a rock. Or do the hands holding the rock symbolize our uncontrolled fate.
