Temperance is the remixing of life, accepting the dead into the underworld, into the blessed lands, and deciding what to send back into the fray. Every atom in our bodies has passed through thousands of forms, and will pass through thousands more. Temperance reminds us of our connection to the greater forces. Others say that the vessels in the Angel�s hands represent the Golden Crucible of Taoism; the vessel that contains eternal life. Others say it is representative of the head feeding the stomach; unification of the physical and spiritual needs. #TemperanceXIV #artJWB #JacobWayneBryner

20x30in acrylic on foam canvas "I slept in and missed class today, I would be upset but I had an incredibly cinematic dream. In the dream I'm in the water and 3 siren mermaids are trying to drag me to the depths when all of a sudden a pinkish and blue orb surrounds me and quickly drags me to the surface. Once on land there is a beautiful trail before me and I look up and a figure who is hard to make out but through dream logic I understand to be Natalie Portman, has just saved me. She has the same orb glowing around her to the one that saved me from the water and as I look past where she is floating there are these horrible skeletal crabs stacked on top of one another trying to get to me.

22x28in acrylic on canvas Metaphysics pressing in on itself preparing for the big bang to re-re-re-ignite. A heat at the back of your neck and then the air fills with cold. So many perspectives, so many factions, bending and folding in on themselves. Birth and Death. Where are you right now? #artJWB

"I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date" sort of thing. Plus I always thought other representations made such a great character kind of a square. I re approached this concept in my piece "What if I Told You?" #artJWB
