The energy of fire within darkness, defying the night and the enveloping blackness that the dying day brings. There’s always doom and gloom as winter approaches but I like to think a bonfire painting radiates warmth and hope.

Measuring 30 × 40 x 1.7 cm (12 × 16 × 0.75 inches) this oil painting on canvas embodies both the energy of fire and its mysteriousness.
