"Autumn Snake" Limited Edition 10" x 18"

$33.00

“The power of life causes the snake to shed its skin, just as the moon sheds its shadow. Sometimes the serpent is represented as a circle eating its own tail. That’s an image of life. Life sheds one generation after another, to be born again. The serpent represents immortal energy and consciousness engaged in the field of time, constantly throwing off death and being born again. There is something tremendously terrifying about life when you look at it that way. And so the serpent carries in itself the sense of both the fascination and the terror of life.” -Joseph Campbell

The painting Autumn Snake is part of my Memento Mori collection, a series of artworks that remind us of our mortality. I find that in order to live an ecstatic and vibrant life, one must contemplate death. The snake reminds us to cherish what is beautiful in this life, and when I look at it, I train myself to be a little more prepared for the end. The snake also represents a grounding earthly energy, and the flow of the creative spirit. Overflowing with symbolism, Autumn Snake is a creature that will be cherished for years to come.
