I am drawn to abstractions, I like to experiment with color and I don’t like to follow the rules. Our world is much too structured and hierarchical and there is too much planning and scheduling. There are always deadlines and we are pushed to speed through our daily lives and the focus is either on the past or the future.
We miss too much of the present moment, which is where real life resides. I’m rebelling against those messages of speed and structure and chaos when I paint, collage or create prayer sticks. I let my intuition and emotions guide me.
I view painting as a form of meditation – when I’m painting, nothing else is of concern. I live in the moment, which is where I am supposed to be. The future and the past disappear.
Watercolor is my favorite medium. It represents ‘the incredible lightness of being’ and defies the heaviness that can accompany life’s ups and downs. Life in so many ways feels heavy – watercolor paint feels light and free. It’s delicate and vibrant and gentle. I find comfort within it. Acrylic is finding its way into my life too. Experimentation is a delight.
I have a plan inside my mind to create peace machines. They are still inside the corners of my thinking, but they are close to coming out into the world. I’ll keep you posted.
