kerzen licht candle light acrylic painting spiritual artwork ivo zibulla leipzig

It started out of an impulse of sharing a symbolic light for some close friends. Then it became an open call support offer kind of thing. I like painting those gifts.


This small scale acrylic paintings on black cardboard represent lit candles. Each candle is created using max two strokes for the body and one to two drops with a spatula. Additional effects like the halo by dried watercolor or sparkles decorate some of them. In winter 2020/21 I created about 50 pieces and send them to four different continents.

In summer 2021 I received my first big request from the evangelical parish in Graal-Müritz at the Baltic Sea coast of Germany. Again, 50 candles left to remind some fellow humans of their inner healing power.
