Love Explodes Into Life
This one was painted in total silence. So much of my work is done with music playing. Sometimes the music is the music I create as I whistle my favourite tunes. Once I used to be able to sing, now I am grateful I manage to speak. I so miss signing so I compensate with the whistle.
This painting had no whistle, no music, just that inner burst of emotion as you contemplate the things that make you LOVE. The love I speak of is AGAPE. (See the other blog)
The colours used were the colours of my mind on that day. I looked at no colour wheel I just painted. I could almost have done this with my eyes closed.
I have been talking with my blind friend Andy about this topic. Of colour and how we would depict in the inner eye the thoughts we have.
He is almost ready to put a canvas on an easel and we will begin an adventure.

This is a beautiful painting and it was a beautiful idea to paint it as you did, just letting the emotions inside guide you... I should try that sometime... but it would involve a "letting go" and that is not easy for control-freaks like me!
ReplyDeleteAgape love - the love the Father has for us.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! In this one, one feels the feelings of the artist! Congratulations and thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI hope your friend enjoys painting too..the story of love made me think of many words that been polluted with overuse..some that come to mind are: hero, sorry,surreal, awesome..I really have no love for these words anymore!
ReplyDeleteAgape- the love of all Loves. His Love.
