"Gateway Guardian" Original Painting

“Gateway Guardian” (Guardian de la Entrada)

16x20in mixed media & oils on canvas. 

I have this idea about the evolution of our Spirit. I believe that as we grow and evolve we transcend planes and dimensions. We become closer and closer to Light, to God, to Infinity. As we do this, we climb levels that make us lighter and more connected to Spirit.

 It's like a school, where you pass a grade and after that you’re in a newer, higher level. you have acquired more skills and more knowledge and I believe Life to be like that. When we see a brother or sister who has more experience or more wisdom than us, it doesn’t mean they’re better, it just means they can guide our path to make it easier.

The same goes as we climb the ladder of evolution. As we grow in levels, we have to pass each grade and in order to do that, we’re “tested”. Here, the "Gateway Guardian" will test you. It'll show your fears and see how much courage, Trust and Faith you have to climb the upper levels. If anything, he’ll fight you, growl at you, scratch you or even kill you. But, once you pass, you reach a whole new realm, a whole new level, a whole new Self, the one that you’ve been searching for.

ABOUT SHIPPING & HANDLING:

Dear collector, because I live in the mountains and sometimes we get the heaviest of the heavy storms of snow, shipping may be delayed. It also takes me some time to wrap the piece and package it properly so nothing gets damaged in the process. Allow from 3 to 20 business days for the piece to be shipped and delivered.
