The Cosmos of Contemplation

It took a few sketches to come up with a final concept for this piece. I wanted it to feel ethereal. A representation of what things look like in my head. My higher self always trying to push my life in the right direction. Fighting the ups and downs of existence. This painting was inspired by a conversation I had with a coworker who said I was lost in thought one day, shortly after I started thinking of an image that could be a visualization of what I felt in that moment. 
 
This is The Cosmos of Contemplation.
