Portrait of Compersion Print

Portrait of Compersion Print

Compersion is the feeling of whole-hearted and sympathetic joy we feel for somebody else, even when their positive experience does not involve or benefit us directly—like seeing a loved one love another. Depicted in the painting is a group portrait showcasing a variation of human relationships when set free from religion and repressive societal structures. The figures display the lesser known but commonly felt emotion: compersion.

In the realm of human relationships, this soothing emotion becomes available when one lets go their feelings of ownership over their partner(s).

Brothers of the Forest series explores our hard-wired human emotions and how they shape our human relationships with one another. In the paintings, the figures symbolize our emotions and their coexistence. My intention with this series is to invite viewers to examine what they think they know about human relationship templates versus what’s actually out there in the world.

Brothers of the Forest was created for Photonic Playground’s 1st LGBTQ themed show and Orange County Pride. To see and read about the painting series, visit: www.edmundliang.com/brothers

Signed Collector's Edition Prints

If you'd like a custom-sized hand-signed print of any of my pieces, look no further. Unlike the standard prints, these custom prints are printed on thick archival 100% cotton rag fine art papers using archival inks. If you're curious about the paper and ink spec, see below!

Otherwise, if this sounds like what you're looking for, shoot me an email or message on Instagram and let's chat! 😍

  • How It Works

    Standard & custom prints are made only when orders are placed. So when you place an order, my printing partner and I will be notified. Once your order is processed, my printing partner will package and ship your products to you. I love this method because it avoids overproduction which reduces environmental waste! Easy-peasy. Standard prints are not hand-signed.

    Unless otherwise specified, standard prints come with a minimum border of approximately .5in (1.27cm).

    Borders help with the matting and framing process. It also helps prevent finger prints or accidents from damaging the actual print area.
