Art ~ A Ten~Year Path


This painting was created 10 years ago

Two Heads
acrylic on canvas
4'X3'

Most appreciated by men ~
almost sold 5 times ~
I chose to hold on to it



This painting was created 10 years later

They Will Grow
acrylic and chinese ink on paper
8"X5"

An intimate piece ~
I painted for my sister ~
it hangs in her bedroom


What does this reveal about ~

The path that I have travelled?

What I was feeling then?
Who I was?
Who I am now?

Any thoughts?

Much appreciated ~

Love


Love is brought to us ~

on many days ~

in many different ways ~



A smile at the checkout from a stranger
A kiss on the cheek from a brother
A pat on the back from a teacher
A two-minute hug from a grandmother

And sometimes ~
Love ~
Comes ~
as an unimaginable surprise

This little guy ~
has been my surprise

My first pet
My first dependent
My first lap cushion
My first constant presence

This little guy ~
is my first ~
True ~
Unconditional ~
Love

I wish you all ~
the same First ~
the same Love ~
in your life

With so many pets ~
needing to Love ~
and to be Loved
I am certain my wish can come true ~
for all
Be it ~
temporary ~
or permanent

Joyeuses FĂȘtes mes chers amis ~ Happy Holidays my dear friends

May all your dreams come true ~
