Two great trees rise at the heart of this composition—one leafy and luminous, the other like a radiant sunburst—anchoring the entire scene in a dialogue between earth and heaven. Around them unfolds a vision of the San Francisco Bay rendered through post-Byzantine chromatic symbolism. Inspired by Stamatis Skliris, the artist fuses modern form with Byzantine sensibility. The rolling golden hills, crystalline patterns, and glowing waters become living symbols of creation’s abundance and harmony. The Bay and cityscape shimmer in the background, less as topography and more as revelation—an icon of communion between nature, humanity, and divine energy. Through its vibrant palette and contemplative rhythm, Bay Area Vision transforms the familiar landscape into a sacred hymn of transfiguration, where even the trees seem to pray.
