Must Be Worth a Lot to Be Alive

Original Abstract Painting by Christina Scherer
50 x 55 inches | Acrylic and Ink on Hand-Stretched Canvas

“Must Be Worth a Lot to Be Alive” is an original abstract painting from Christina Scherer’s collection I Used to Write Poetry, a series that honors the miracle of existence through color, vibration, and prayer. This piece embodies the pulse of aliveness—the shimmer of air, the rush of light through the body, the quiet astonishment of simply being here.

Created through Christina’s ritual process, each layer is infused with the tones of crystal singing bowls, tuning forks, and prayer. The water used in the paint was blessed and sung over, allowing sound and intention to merge with pigment. The result is a living, resonant artwork, charged with the frequencies of joy, reverence, and renewal.

Visually, the painting moves like breath—lush greens and ochres mingling with lilac and cobalt, echoing the vitality of nature in motion. Crafted with acrylic, ink, and oil sticks on hand-stretched cotton canvas, it balances energy and stillness in equal measure. Finished with archival varnish for protection and longevity.

This piece carries the frequency of gratitude, vitality, and awe, making it a luminous centerpiece for large interiors, meditation spaces, or environments that celebrate presence and the sacredness of being alive.
