Iceland - 24.8" x 24.8" x .5" Acrylic on Wood - 2025

This mandala captures the ethereal beauty of Finland’s night skies, where the aurora borealis paints the heavens in waves of violet, turquoise, and shimmering gold. At its heart, the design glows with quiet radiance, unfolding in layers that echo the movement of the Northern Lights as they ripple across frozen landscapes. Each petal and dotted arc seems to dance, reflecting the natural rhythm of light, shadow, and stillness. The deep purples evoke the mystery of polar nights, when the world rests under a canopy of stars. Turquoise sweeps through the mandala like the reflection of icy lakes, pure and crystalline beneath the moon. Golden highlights glimmer like firelight in a Lapland lodge, offering warmth against the winter’s chill. Together, these tones carry both serenity and wonder, embodying the spirit of a land where nature commands reverence and silence speaks volumes. “Finland” is a luminous tribute to balance and beauty — an intricate reminder of the fleeting yet eternal magic found in light dancing across a dark horizon.
