Immortal Dance

Oil Pastel, 18” x 29"

The peacock is a symbol of beauty and immortality. It has been said that the eye of the peacock feather holds the secrets of eternity. The design on the peacock's fanned tail is created by intersecting spirals. These same spirals are found at the center of many flowers, like the sunflower and daisy. When sensing rain, the peacock does a geometric dance related to the spiral. In all of nature, minerals, plants, animals and humans, there is divine patterning.
