The Moon at Play

Epicurus is quoted as saying, “If you don’t regard what you have as enough, you will never be happy even if you rule the entire world.” The Stoic urges us to figure out what is enough so we can be satisfied in life. The Moon at Play represents life seasons. The mountain’s varied inclines represent the complexities of life. Our desires and ideas are embodied by the many textures in the sky. The gold, unassuming mountain on the third canvas symbolizes the ultimate season of peace where, like the moon, we are free to play.
