About "Walk on the water"

by Charles Michels - Ilustrador Design

About the artwork

A half abstract, half figurative image. This is a digital adaptation of a painting that is about optimism. An optimist always knows a way to walk on water. OK, sometimes you have to cheat a little....
The composition is very complex, a lot is happening, but the skipper doesn't get distracted and sails, already walking it seems, across the water. Delighted by the successful illusion, a trumpeter plays the highest song.

Despite the fact that this is a still image, there is a clear illusion of movement.

Boats have symbolised the journey we take in life for centuries. Despite the crowds, difficulties and possible dangers, always keep your own course and sail calmly in your direction.
The little donkey, left, is held out a carrot: the goal is set but yet to be achieved. By quietly letting the boat steer its own course, the goal comes closer. This explains the trumpeter's cheerfulness.
The eye represents vigilance. Yes, the skipper is keeping a close eye on the reactions of any onlooker.

The original painting is an acrylic painting.
