This oil painting, inspired by a photograph, portrays a solitary chapel bathed in the ethereal glow of the Milky Way. The humble structure, nestled in a tranquil countryside, stands in stark contrast to the vastness of the cosmos above. The theme explores the juxtaposition of the earthly and the divine, highlighting the enduring power of faith even in the face of the universe's immensity.
I was captivated by a photograph that captured the serene beauty of a chapel under a starlit sky. The image evoked a sense of wonder and contemplation, prompting me to recreate this scene on canvas. I wanted to capture the stillness of the night, the subtle play of light and shadow, and the feeling of quietude and spiritual connection that the photograph inspired in me.
