From Artist Candiotti

We are excited to feature "Gem City" by Artist Barbara Candiotti in the awesome August 2022 issue of Electric Spec. Barbara was kind enough to send along some comments about the piece.

The overall color of this artwork is pink. From a metaphysical perspective, pink is considered a healing, peaceful, harmonious color. Thus the tone of this artwork, "Gem City," represents an otherworldly destination for repose, meditation, and healing.

In the lower-left corner, a lone horseman on a cliff overlooks a valley covered in dense pink fog and mist. The horseman is partially blurred as if in a dreamscape. Is he real, or is this a dream of his making? Rising out of the shrouded valley are immense purple and pink mountains. The mountain peak in the center-right of the picture emanates a pink beacon of light/frequency from its top extremity. This gem-like beacon represents an intangible siren song beckoning those on a quest for spiritual knowledge, whether in the dream state or waking state.




Thanks, Barbara! Very interesting!
Be sure to check out the whole issue on August 31, 2022!
