Large MM Abstract.
This painting was created using the same methods as the one I used on my blog yesterday. It seemed right to put the other one on again today.
I am not sure that it fits with the blog I have written today on my other blog and for that I apologise.
I am still struggling to come to terms with the fact that somebody I have got to know on here is off sleeping in a car and I can do little about. I also have a dear friend who is going through Chemo at present and I can do little about that either.
Another of my blogging friends is also very ill and can not paint because it is exhausting her. I can do nothing. I feel helpless.
In the meantime here I am complaining that I cannot find the inspiration to paint, seems so trivial. At the same time my health is daily increasing with the tough schedule I have set myself. I have lost 28lbs in weight running better and yesterday cycled twice as far as I had thought I could and intended.
So one day soon I will paint. I have been trying to do some drawing but it is far from good enough to show on here, after showing Barbra’s tree roots.
I have also been remiss in leaving encouraging comments on the many blogs I read every day. That I will put right .
It is these thoughts that prompted my other blog this morning.
I hope you have a good day.

Good Morning Ralph, Yes we are powerless unless given the power! Another "signature painting" my friend, I would recognize it anywhere!
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing good about feeling helpless. However, there are times and events that make it so. Sometimes something small - a card, phone call, flowers from your garden - can mean a great deal to someone having a bad time. Just knowing that someone else cares makes a huge difference.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you are doing better! :-)
You are inspiring people which is far from being helpless - and you give people pleasure with your art too. It is so sad that some people suffer such misfortune in their lives - but some things are just out of our control. Just keep inspiring, Ralph!
ReplyDeletemay you paint
ReplyDeletefrom your great heart
a beat of hope
a tear of grace
a memory
and a flower
may the light shine
on your canvas
as that first great light from darkness
as the word I AM
rang from steeple heights
may you breathe
and paint
may you breathe
and paint
may your great heart beat
and may you persist
A beautiful piece Ralph. I'm sure your prayers help more than you know.
ReplyDeleteOn est vulnérable face à l'impuissance... Vous faites déjà beaucoup, vous pensez...
ReplyDeleteJ'aime votre peinture, elle est très souvent tellement forte... comme vous. Courage,
