"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to get through this thing called life" ~ Prince
As a tribute to the late, great Prince on his 58th birthday, I decided to call this piece "Purple & Gold" as these two colours symbolize his whole being perfectly.
While working on this piece listening to classic Prince tracks and doing some reflecting, I felt as though I transferred a lot of my own emotion to it, giving this piece even more sentimental value for myself. Prince radiated positive vibes, and I want this piece to do the same, while representing freedom, confidence, passion, and love.
Purple: the colour most often associated with royalty, magic, mystery, and piety.
Represents meanings of wealth; extravagance, creativity, dignity, devotion, and peace.
Gold: the colour associated with higher ideals, wisdom, understanding and enlightenment. Illuminates richness and warmth, inspires knowledge, spirituality and deep understanding of the self and the soul..

May Prince's legacy live on..
