Acrylic on Archival Gessobord with 3/4" Birch Sides, 12 x 12". Ready to hang!
Today I've been working on the painting from two days ago. There were things that were bothering me and once I picked up the paint brush again it wouldn't let me go until I felt satisfied. Sometimes you have to put something away to have clarity. Tuck it away and come back to it. You can see it with a fresh heart and mind. I think our brains keep working at it however. I've learned to trust in that. I will sometimes look at a painting or think about it, at least, before I go to bed at night and tell my mind to keep working on it. But I don't think it really needs my permission. A book was recommended to be recently called "Waking Up Grey: An Exploration of Creative Awakening". We are created in God's image, and so like the Creator, we feel whole and good when we create. It is a book to open up your creativity again, which perhaps was lost after leaving grade school. I am going to explore it. I know that being creative has been a very healing experience for me. I wish the same for you! Check out the comparison of the two paintings below. Can you see the changes I've made?
