Artist Comments
Symbolic of water's vitality, artist Kira Yustak depicts a sight of hands cupping water from a clear river. She paints the introspective piece with an absorbing primitive style. "Our bodies are made from 60 percent water, and it is very essential to life on Earth," says Kira. She portrays the hands feeling the cool soothing water in a spiritual way emanating tranquility.
