EYE "SIS" — Original Mixed Media Painting, 8" × 8" on Canvas
EYE "SIS"
In ancient Egypt, Isis — goddess of magic, healing, and divine sight — was revered as the one who sees all and restores what is broken. EYE "SIS" carries that energy forward. A raw, visceral portrait bursting with color and layered meaning, this 8" × 8" mixed media original on canvas channels the watchful power of Isis through a deeply expressive face built from bold, fluid brushwork in deep amber, magenta, teal, and black.
A single painted eye anchors the composition — the Eye of Isis — gazing with quiet intensity amid the chaos of mark-making, symbolic line work, and gestural abstraction. Like the goddess herself, this painting holds contradiction: wild yet composed, ancient yet urgent, familiar yet unknowable.
This is a painting that commands a wall and starts a conversation.

About the Work
The figure in EYE "SIS" is simultaneously familiar and elusive — a presence caught between worlds, rendered through expressive line, layered color fields, and bold gestural marks that echo the hieroglyphic symbols and sacred imagery of Egyptian antiquity. The heavy acrylic medium coating preserves every brushstroke and adds a dimensional quality that photographs alone can't fully capture. This is a piece you experience differently every time you look at it.
