Well, it's that time again....pumpkins all over the place, etc...So, here is my contribution to pumpkin season. I painted this piece a while back. It was inspired by the pumpkin screaming at me to paint it in a neighbor's pumpkin patch. We were both very happy with the resulting creation...although, she couldn't stop looking at herself on canvas....

I really love this little painting.

Today's Quotation: "A very young painter is seldom alone. If he is an art student, he is in an art school with other students. He does not yet know that one day he will have to face himself as a solitary creature enclosed in a space of four walls... and that he will have to be a self-propelled being, with no one at his side."

"Ablaze" is another painting that began as a plein air landscape while I was set up with all my painting gear on the helicopter pad on the beautiful grounds of the healing center/church I attend. I began to paint the landscape but found it difficult to focus so...rather than force something that my energy wasn't up to that day, I decided to set my creativity free and see what happened.

I actually painted most of this piece upside down with the moon at the upper right of the canvas. When it was close to being finished and I was painting in the stars, I turned it upside down and liked it much better that way. I have signed it on the back to accommodate the preferences of whoever adopts it...

Today's Quotation: "Art is our one true global language. It knows no nation, it favors no race, and it acknowledges no class. It speaks to our need to reveal, heal, and transform. It transcends our ordinary lives and lets us imagine what is possible."

I am very happy with this painting. This piece is painted on a smooth canvas panel which made it easier for my brush to flow smoothly and sensuously across the canvas. 

Once again, I let go and let the 'spirit' move me and my brush as I attempted to keep my over active brain out of the process. What I mean by this is...  I am aware of my  "Inner Critic" which is almost a constant companion, and if allowed, it will interfere and try stop my process of spontaneity.  I am often aware of my struggle between control and freedom, especially when I am painting...Are you surprised?

Today's Quotation: "There's a kind of miracle involved with paint. Its just this stuff in a tube... you squeeze out. It's this physical thing, yet you use it as a transforming agent."

Well, folks, after I uploaded the photo of "Cosmic Light" I sat here trying to think of something to say about it....and I hit a blank wall. So, I thought I'd get some help from good old Google. I typed in Cosmic Light and discovered the Cosmic Light shows at the Clark Planetarium in Salt Lake City, Utah.

"Healing Light" was painted on the helicopter pad at "Christ The King Healing Center"  in Greenwich, NY. My original intention was to paint a view of the beautiful landscape from this vantage point. After I initially toned my canvas with light red, I found it difficult to focus on the landscape. I decided to give my spirit free reign and this is the result. I am certain this painting is imbued with healing energy having been painted on this very special sacred ground. 

Today's Quotation: "At the deepest level, the creative process and the healing process arise from a single source. When you are an artist, you are a healer; a wordless trust of the same mystery is the foundation of your work and its integrity."
