Open and Receive

 

He stepped from the autumn woods

to find her

offering golden light

Feels so good to complete a painting.

I started this in July

life had some other plans for me, besides painting.

Now I get to start another painting, wahoo

~

I hope you are all enjoying our new season.

There is something about the thresholds of seasons,

the air holds a different energy

two seasons greeting one another

dancing back and forth. 

A heightened sense of life perhaps. 

Here in NW Montana 

it feels as though we have truly entered autumn, 

summer has vanished.

Lovely autumn to you!

Painting available here.

Forest Lad

 

Immersed in the forest

he knelt to visit with the boletes

~

I was so immersed in this painting that I forgot I was doing a lesson

and

didn't follow the lesson. 

Makes me smile, as I love getting immersed in basically anything!

Receiving Light ~

This painting took me days to feel that it was complete. 

Layers and layers......

pausing to consider. 

Turning a light on it when I passed the art table,

what does it need, I pondered. 

Today it told me what it needed 

and then it felt complete. 

Ah

That happens with most my art, but this one took longer to find what it wanted.

Inner Realm

 she discovered

with her mind silent

body still

heart open

her inner universe 

opens to her

~

 I used Arches 140 HP paper

It was nice to paint on,

but the paper buckled. I will need to flatten it, which is fine. 

I do prefer paper that does not buckle.

She Says

fly to the light
she says

sun light
star light
inner light

let it fill each cell
of your body

bathe in it's glory

then exhale this light
with every breath
into our lovely world

nourish and be nourished
in this intimate exchange
with light
~

Our days have been gray and rainy

funny thing, no sunlight

so I had to scan this and you can not tell that it is shimmery paint
