“Flowers in the Mist” and “A Thousand Petaled Blessing”
I recently went into the studio just bursting to paint. The past few months had been filled with travel, festivities and family stuff. No time to paint, to create. Now that that was all behind us, the ordinary rhythm of work and school has brought some semblance of calm to our lives.
These huge canvases have been sitting in my studio for months, just waiting, calling to me.
I put on Groove Armada and Suede and get to work.
The joy of paint flowing, and colors dripping on canvas felt like my soul finally breathing again. It felt so good.
And here they are – two paintings from the corner of my world.
Flowers in the mist
a vision of rain,
on a misty mountain day,
flowers blooming, glistening, yet hidden,
like undiscovered treasures
half buried, almost discovered
what treasures of our souls
will we find if we look within?
A thousand petaled blessing
May your life bloom like a thousand petaled blessing
Fragrant with the sweetness of things coming full circle
May the petals of love fall gently on you,
Blessing you with swift, soft miracles
May tender goodness be with you
As many as the petals of a thousand petaled blessing
