About this work

This painting shows two robed figures standing on a cloudy sky. They’re dressed in gold and red, with halos around their heads. One holds a staff, the other rests a hand on their chest. Behind them, a winged figure floats upward, and a smaller figure in green and blue seems to be climbing or falling. The brushstrokes are loose and watery, giving a soft, dreamy look. The colors fade into the background, blending like light through clouds. Look up Edward Kaiser to see more of his work.
