Under-painting thin layers upon layers of pigment and glazes, permits light to enter the painting and cause illumination from within. This technique, understood by Mulleian from the teachings of the old world artistsans, rarely perfected in the modern world, has created a level of technical excellence of color brilliance and three-dimensional qualities that exceed and question our own reality. The stunning detail of the prismatic breaking of light through the droplets of water and the beveled surfaces of cut-glass. The artist gives a highly prismatic quality through his translucent hues that captures the feeling of age that seems to come alive. As texture and light beckons the viewers into a captivating level thought not to be possible with paint. Mulleian writes:
The image depicts our vulnerability to life's uncertainty like the petal of a rose that falls to the AIDS hotline number in hope of compassion. The sound of spring rain upon the window offers assurance, sympathy, and renewal.
