The painting moves in spiraling gestures, with bold circular forms radiating outward like waves of light and sound. Deep blues and violets flow around glowing accents of gold, red, and white, creating a magnetic balance between warmth and coolness, density and transparency. The rhythm of the brushwork feels spontaneous yet purposeful, as if each stroke were tracing the invisible paths of thought and feeling.

The elliptical shapes seem to pulse, evoking the flow of breath or the orbit of celestial bodies. The luminous center glows like a seed of creation — a source of vitality and renewal. Around it, the layers of color build an impression of perpetual movement, suggesting that all things are interconnected in the dance of existence. Ellipse feels like both a landscape of the soul and a physical vibration, bridging the emotional and the cosmic in one unbroken motion.

This work carries an almost musical resonance, where the viewer can feel the brushstrokes as rhythm, the colors as melody, and the entire canvas as a symphony of flow.

I love it because it feels alive — like an endless spiral of energy that captures both serenity and intensity. It speaks to the mystery of cycles: how creation, destruction, and renewal coexist in harmony. Each curve feels like a heartbeat or a whisper from the universe, reminding me that movement is the essence of life.
