Explosion
of Light
This experience was almost impossible to paint, and I therefore used the
ancient symbol of the Uraeus to convey my impression.
(In most references the ‘Uraeus’ means the sacred cobra on Egyptian royal
head-dresses etc.
– only a minority of sources seem to take it to mean the ‘sun wing’ symbol.)
