May the Beholder Have Power!

The eighth piece in this series has been carefully crafted with hopeful intentions to manifest the most favorable, desirable outcomes for the owner and beholder. Dripping with symbolism, acrylic paint is made with sustainably sourced, freshwater pearls and detailed onto luxurious cotton paper with watercolor paint and deckled edge.  

Pearls are formed when a foreign body enters a mollusk and disrupts its natural state of being. The mollusk then works to build a barrier around the irritant, thus creating the beautiful gem that many societies have hailed for generations as a symbol of fertility and good fortune over obstacles. As the saying goes, "No grit, no pearl!"

"Black is a symbol of strength, authority, and power. Black lends an air of authority and intelligence to those who wear it. It symbolizes prestige, formality, and importance. With so many associations, it will come as no surprise that the color black has a profound effect on the psyche." - EraGem
