The title of this piece came from an experience I had. I woke up and went out to my exterior studio to work on this painting at around 3:50am in the morning. I looked up to Zenith in the sky to witness Jupiter. It was a romantically mesmerizing experience. The word chiaroscuro (strong contrasts between light and dark) would best describe the panoramic luminosity.
