Scales of Fire | Original Acrylic Painting

I wanted to create something using the colors of the rainbow that felt alive and moving. As the paint flowed across the canvas, vibrant cells began to emerge, layering over one another like scales catching the light. The painting seemed to shift between fire, water, and something almost mythical.

When my son saw the finished piece, he immediately named it Scales of Fire. The title fit perfectly. The warm reds, oranges, and golds glow against cool greens and blues, creating a sense of energy, transformation, and movement.

This painting holds a special place in my heart because it became the first original painting I sold. While it now lives in its new home, it remains an important milestone in my creative journey and a reminder of the joy that comes from sharing art with others.
