Abyssal Agony
Solitude of Storms
Solitude of Storms is part I of the abyssal agony series by Artist MichaelAnthony using a creative channeling process to express emotions on canvas. It began with the dark figure holding a red umbrella - a consistent symbol throughout the series resembling perseverance, authenticity and protection of the self as they walk through life's storms.
Abyssal Agony Part II
UNSHAKEN
Unshaken is part II in the series about self expression and healing. This piece takes place after a storm has passed, leaving a sea of solitude in ruin from shipwrecks relating to the feelings of losing control in life at times, and abstract patterns made from the impressions of bark chips representing the old parts of the self to allow them to become a higher version of themselves. In Awakening from the storm, the self Rises as does the lone tree that sprouts upwards and grows a single 3D blossom on the canvas representing the beginning of self Transformation and Michael's inspiration behind the A.R.T Method.
ABYSSAL AGONY PART III
Threshold & Collapse
These two paintings where created to be a pairing of the same figure just moments apart - each with a unique meaning hidden within them. Threshold (Left) Is the same figure sitting beneath the tree, the roots below growing as the figures face is replaced with a clock meaning the feeling a the pressure of holding it in knowing at some point; we explode in this case...
Collapse (Right) is the figure Letting it out, expressing the self through color, tone, symbols, and abstract swipes of acrylic. The Rising and transitioning into the Transformation part of the series using paint, impressions, and even a single feather to show everything that was held inside, to finally be released so healing can begin.
Abyssal Agony PART IV
Resonant Bloom
Resonant Bloom, the figure steps forward into the light, carrying the weight of past storms while radiating newfound strength. The energy of transformation flows behind them, a luminous echo of perseverance, resilience, and self-discovery. Darkness remains present, but it is no longer overwhelming - it is acknockledged, tamed and woven into a tapestry of growth. This painting captures the moment where inner struggle becomes empowerment, and personal transformation begins to ripple outward, inspiring those around us. The light is not just within - it resonates beyond, touching others and inviting them to awaken, rise, and transform along side you.
