Swallowing the Moon and the Stars

$270.00

Pale and luminous, the lower half dominated by two large white circles that bloom the way moonlight does in a long exposure: the sky lit so fully the light seems to have weight. And yet the stars are still there, just visible beneath it. A teal half-circle holds the upper right. The surface has the quality of something caught between overexposed and dreaming.

Part of a series painted small as a deliberate challenge, with titles drawn from songs that carry that particular bluesy feeling. The line this one takes its name from is about devotion at cosmic scale: what you'd consume, what you'd cross, to follow the beat of someone's heart. The painting earns it.

12” x 9” acrylic on canvas. Framed in a walnut floating frame. Framed size is 13” x 10” by 1.5”. Wired and ready to hang.
