Queen of the Fireflies.
50 x 70 cm, Acrylic on canvas.

This painting represent my childhood memories. In our childhood time we did more fantasy; in our adult age, we are facing to many problems, no time for fantasy.
It is very interesting to see the fireflies emit lights, and imagine if there is a queen of firelies .. the light must be very bright. In my daily work in medical laboratory, this energy (chemiluminescence) is used in measuring concentration of a substance in our body, but most of us never remember the fireflies. Make your fantasy flies freely.
