After a mystical experience ten years ago, (see Golden Threads blog above) I finally saw and understood that healing energy really does flow through each and every one of us when we express ourselves in any way. As a result, I accepted my path as an artist, which I had shunned before, in lieu of attempting to follow a traditional healer's route.
My latest artistic venture - oil painting (view my paintings flashing on the screen to the left)- I began about three years ago. As most beginners, my focus has been on realism. I hope to eventually grow into a more relaxed, impressionistic style, although I do still love the challenge that realism brings.
I started painting to express the love I felt for each inspired scene. Although a photo could suffice, I felt I wanted to be one with the Creator to try to capture the feeling of creation and to attempt to show the world how I see things.
I get 'hung up' on details because I am fascinated by the microscopic world. I like close-up scenes as opposed to vast landscapes because -as with people - no matter how unpleasant a particular scene may be, if you look close enough, you can always find some good.
Thanks for stopping by! May you always look for and find the good everywhere.
