“Distance Shores” is an Original Mixed Media (Oil, Acrylic, Charcoal ) on Canvas 40“x30” from Glen Tarnowski’s Modern Allegory Signature Series.

Modern Allegory is an art style created by Gl Tarnowski. He is recognized as the founder and creator coining the manner of art: Modern Allegory Art. Modern Allegory is symbolistic. Each element has a defined segment to fulfill the whole story. In Distance Shores, the Keyhole is a glimpse of where we seek to be. The Sea Galleon is our goals, aspirations, desires, and hopes. Any goal first requires working it out. To maintain the sails, steer the vessel through challenges and rough waters to find our way to our goals. The Key represents wisdom. Knowledge is the experience we have learned. But sometimes we have to reach beyond head knowledge into divine wisdom. The two Giraffes are Insight and Humility. Any long-term goals must focus on humility and insight. Life can give us a winding river. How we navigate the challenges, setbacks, setups, and opportunities correctly will take us to endless possibilities represented by the universe. Most paintings have bubbles representing those moments that are here quickly that grab our attention and then gone. They are the faith, hope, and trust needed for any new endeavor.
