with names like ocean of the universe, morning sunshine, radiate and the evening moon.. i see aeropagita abstract prints as drops of joy. many of them symbolize the energy in the universe and they are all focused on positivity. i particularly love how artist mishel describes the art as ‘self help for your walls’. visit aeropagita on etsy and twitter to see more of this beautiful world!
