This series of paintings is based on love.and the feelings it elicits. The electro chemical reactions to love in the brain, and the desire it causes.
We are here to evolve, learn, accomplish, inspire, and create. There are combinations of these elements that give us drive and will. No matter where we come from, what our status is, intellectual prowess, or position in life, I feel there is one more thing beyond the elements that makes most of us the same. Love. Beyond all the distractions and glamour, pain, and suffering, I feel we all want to love and be loved. I'll close this book with the wish that you have love in your life and heart and that it attracts the love you deserve.
"Love is the Answer" is the first of the series and depicts the love of a couple as they affectionately lean towards echother.They are formed simply by the archway the defines day from night. A golden film that seperates the dark from the light. Their love is universal and exists in the complexity that is the world around us. Each thermal whisp in the space time of the scene is executed to visulaize the wondrous complexity of even the most simple landscape. Know that the same complex fluidity flows within and throughout the space between your molecules, with each complex pocket formed dby the movement of temperature and corpuscular movement. The world around us is a wondrous place, but just behind the verneer of our senses, lies a world beyond the dreams of most.
Love is the Answer Oil on Canvas 12"x9" Louis Markoya - 2020
Love is the Answer is based on the tiny painting to the left, which has been brought to visualization utilizing the very latest in Neural software and deep dreams.
That painting which I did long ago was based on a combination of two Dali works shown below, Couple with Heads full of Clouds and Architectural Reminiscence of Millets Angelus.

The Fillegred Essence of becoming Cumulous
The cloth series is brought to a stunningly beautiful conclusion with "The Fillegred Essence of Becoming Cumulous". While being a completely modern painting it's beauty harkens thoughts of Bougeureau, Raphael, and Bernini. The wind-ruffled dress and lace are becoming cumulous clouds as the clouds are in turn becoming lace and fabric. This action depicts the subject's oneness with her world, her ability to know no bounds, and to feel the space between her molecules.
The expression on her face says it all, as she grasps with her right hand, and then becomes, one with the clouds.
Personally, I love this painting because it conveys a feeling I have tried so many times to relate. It is the ecstasy of life and being one with everything. To truly appreciate its full meaning you should read the descriptive page of the Cloth Series here;
