Seek




This is one of my newer quote paintings. I couldn't believe how fast the process went with this one...when I stepped back from it, I felt like it had painted itself. There is something very calming about it to me. I used a quote from a Sarah McLachlan song and I can almost hear her whispering voice when I look at this one. Her lyrics are true poetry in my life. I have always admired her as a song writer. I just find her to be brilliant on so many levels. If my painting could in anyway capture a visual moment of her emotion filled songs then I would feel pleased. I aspire to be a strong, honest artist like Sarah and so many others that allow themselves to live in the moment. Real and alive, succeed or fail, at least it is true.
