**This painting was inspired by my stay in San Francisco. It’s literally feels like i left my heart in San Francisco, its by the Cliff house and offshore facing the Pacific ocean. A group of rocks where seals and sea lion stays maybe for sunbathing or just to relax.**

**This is the Photograph that we took when we went there. Its a part of San Francisco that i love to spend my time  either finding inspiration or just simply relaxing. I actually remember this place more than the main city as its so congested and traffic in the city, actually theres a lot of Nature trails found nearby, and i enjoy that the most. Some people like the city, and the sky rise, buildings or theme parks, while me and my family would rather be with nature, its more relaxing, you cant be in a bad mood while in nature. And it feels good to breath the fresh air, seeing flowers and trees everywhere, you cant never go wrong with that.**

**Im so thankful that i was able to develop my skills in painting, its very unbelievable when i see the finish piece. I use nature as my source of inspiration and its endless, just the sky itself has different hues, although out the day when you look at the sky its constantly changing. And gives you that feeling of impermanence. And when i paint it kinda puts me into trance where i could actually feel that im in that place and puts me back to that feeling that i could capture it in a painting and i also get that same feeling when i look at it. I believe that who ever looks at it deeply would or might feel the same. So painting for me is not just a figure of an imagination but is also an emotion that could be felt.**

**I love using symbols when i paint. That got me painting in the first place, this combination of flower of life and yin and yang. I might have came up with something new, but i havent seen it before in that way.  The symbol that i used here is like a cell thats enclosed within a membrane, where a balance of both extremes,  which always exist and all you can do is to find that balance within you, its a vortex of energy where the sky and earth meet. Its a fractal that is endless, no beginning and no end, but keeps expanding just like our universe. Its shows how everything is connected to each other and we are all one at the same time. A symbol of musculine and feminine, a symbol of creation out of love and unity. One love to everyone🙏🏻**
