Tunnel Vision, 2018 - Original acrylic painting

Tunnel Vision: A Matter of Perspective is a mesmerizing original acrylic painting about choices. This piece depicts a spectrum of color that resembles the way a beam of light refracts when it passes through a glass prism.
 
It’s peculiar in that, if you look into the point at which the colors converge, you’re drawn into a vanishing point — everything disappears into nothingness.
 
Yet, when you allow your gaze to release its grip on that single point, and begin to look around the canvas, you are freed to enjoy the seemingly infinite melody of beauty as the colors almost seamlessly transition from one to the next.
 
You are the vanishing point. When you choose to focus only on yourself, no matter the motive — be it self-ambition, self-pity, fear, anything — you imprison yourself into an unfulfilling existence, devoid of color and joy.
 
Yet, when you take your eyes off yourself, shifting your gaze to those around you, you open yourself to experience the beauty that comes from serving those God has placed in your life to love.
 
The choice is yours.
 
(Matthew 5:16, Philippians 2:4, 1 Peter 4:10-11)
