Vincent Smarkusz

Undiscovered American Genius in Modern Art

February

"February" celebrates Vincent's birth month and contains meaning special to him.  In this image he is holding a water vessel representing the zodiac sign of Aquarius.  It signifies his baptism in the Holy Spirit as he kneels in a state of rapture. Birds representing spiritual transcendence encircle and alight on him.  A Bird-of-Paradise in the shape of a heart is the symbol of Saint Valentine's Day.
