BLUE DRAGON

The key concept of the project is to glorify Mother Nature who was the origin of all living creatures on Earth, and her personification is in painting number 2 from the collection, on the left side of the canvas. The divine feminine is in a slightly turned away stance, with her dark red hair flowing freely. Her long hair eventually formed into circles that surrounded her body.

Marianne was able to connect the idea of perfection to nature in a subtle way by using geometric shapes and mathematical principles: a spiral in the bottom-right corner next to the Goddess is a reference to Fibonacci’s Golden Spiral, also known as the divine proportion, which is the ideal ratio found in nature.

The artist refers to the Golden Ratio while using this idea as the core concept to represent the entire project.

According to her statement, all of the paintings in this collection were created in a spiral order and are connected to one another. A large circle is a subject and the beginning of the spiral in painting number 1 on the left of “Feminine Divine,” while the Goddess is a continuation of the spiral’s tail from the first panel.

From a technical point of view, this painting is made up of ten layers, the first of which is gesso to create an invisible layer of three-dimensional strokes. The final layer is finished with a digital process to render a brilliant and high solution output. In fact, this project conveys the subliminal concept of nature with a combination of ancient mythology, symbolized by a holy figure, and contemporary digital art and 3D depth effect, allowing viewers to contemplate its aesthetic values and have their experience enhanced through technology.
