The Prayer



I know its been a while. Sometime has past, I think it must be that the idea of regular bloggin is in its infancy. But, heres to the reaching out to the new. This work came from a place of deep confusion and feeling lost. Where was I going with all of this? The questions I was asking needed to go outside of myself and hope they could be heard by a wiser soul. The answer came as the painting grew. The character is asking, hands together, please help me here, I need to know my path. The being/face behind is sublime and all knowing and the connection is made as the bird, the soul sings aloud and with joy to the world. So resolution was found within the work itself. Process made real. This is where the true meaning of painting exists for me. From heart and desire for resolution, a new image is born.
