In the world of painting that is. Like a photograph if it makes the viewer feel something then it is successful. These colours grabbed me and the paintings calmed me. Which I needed.
I'm not a 'professional' painter and I am well aware of my 'mistakes' but overall I am satisfied with them. After painting hubby's one I needed something slow and calming.
How I wish I could walk into these paintings and stay a while, just to visit and allow them to sooth. I want to follow her through that archway to see what's on the other side. I want to hold my hand out and invite the little bird to share his song with me and I want to cross the bridge and sit in the wee church.
I want to find my peace again and I can't but at least I find it for a little while when I paint.
