This painting is called "Creation", because it reminds me a lot of Michelangelo's painting "The Creation of Adam." The rough, spiked and small shell represents Adam (us), because we are imperfect and sinful, therefore we have our rough edges. The bigger and smoother shell represents God, because he is perfect and powerful, therefore he doesn't have any rough edges. The 2 shells are almost touching is inspired by Michelangelo's painting, because in his painting Adam's hand and God's hand are almost touching which shows how God breathes life in Adam.
Nice reference to the old masters .I liked the arrangement and the experimentation with technoques.
