Mother Essence
Honor the sacred with "The Mother Essence," a deeply personal 36x36 inch original abstract painting from JFeelgood’s private Past & Future series. Created in 2011 through an experimental fusion of acrylic, latex, spray paint, and raw elements like a torn landlord notice, this one-of-a-kind work captures a moment of emotional upheaval—rage, grief, reverence—and seals it in time like a butterfly in amber.
Born from conversations in the artist’s studio with friend and ALS warrior Bill Welch, The Mother Essence was shaped not only by hands, but by memory, chemistry, and time. The swirling blues, marbled whites, and splashes of textured chaos evoke an otherworldly presence—maternal, elemental, infinite. Each detail vibrates with motion and feeling, yet the piece holds itself still like a sacred relic.
This painting was once sold, then bought back by the artist—its emotional value outweighing any transaction. It has traveled through years of personal change, carried like a compass of meaning and memory.
