Lot Description:

Title: Hour Glass (Dolphins)

Artist: Akiane Kramarik

Edition: G3  40/500

Dimensions: Canvas 24" x 32"

Dimensions: Frame 32" x 40.5"

Beautiful dolphins and sea creatures swim in a shallow sea, dappled with sunlight in this reproduction of an acrylic done in 2004 by Akiane Kramarik. This piece is dated 3/30/07 and is on canvas. It has a certificate of authenticity and is signed and numbered by the artist. Framed in a dark copper toned painted wood frame with a muslin inset and decoratively carved fillet. A few mild scruffs to the top of the frame, unseen when hung, mild scuffs on the exposed edge along the top, upper left and lower left corners. Canvas in excellent condition, frame in very good condition. See photos for additional details.

About this piece: Five groups of dolphins represent five groups of beings responding differently to time. One group swims away from it. The second group looks for time in the wrong way. The third group distracts others from finding the secrets of time. In the end, the code of time is discovered by very few—by the most diligent and the most tenderhearted.


About the artist: Kramarik is a self-taught painter and says that Jesus spoke to her when she was four years old, encouraging her to draw and paint her visions. She began to draw at the age of four, was painting at six, and began to write poetry at seven. At the age of 8 years old, Akiane painted Jesus. Her first completed self-portrait sold for US$10,000.

Kramarik's paintings are often allegoricalas well as spiritual, involving likenesses of Jesus, children, and animals, as well as self-portraits. She often draws inspiration from magazine pictures. However, according to Kramarik, her main inspiration comes from her visions of Heaven and her religious  experiences. By age 12, she had completed sixty large paintings. Some of her works have been purchased by the US Embassy in Singapore She has completed over 200 artworks and 800 literary works and has published two best-selling books.
