I was so grateful for this moment, I was grateful for the blue sky and the green plants. I wanted to express the vivacity of the morning in a painting – so I looked at the long shadows and decided that, for once, they represent that happy feeling of “what good may come”. >> said Dominic Virtosu.

An emotion is like a field of energy – it is projected around you each time you're feeling it. This is the way the artist visualizes this garden – a persistent energy field that becomes an object in itself.
