I usually have a lot to say when I post one of my pieces on here. But today, not so much. I will let this painting speak for itself.

I had nothing to offer anybody except my own confusion. - Jack Kerouac

For me, it's always in the searching...

    And it does speak, and I wish I could analyse how it was made, though that would spoil the magic, so I won't but just gaze and enjoy. xx

  4. Thank you Ann, Kim and Lisa. Ann- it was made with lots and lots of layers. Scraping and then lots and lots of layers.

    as I delve ever deeper into the "Mysteries of the Wax" I want to pull that piece from my screen and examine it 'up close'. ;)

    Lovely as always Miss Searcher! xo

  9. After the flames
    only the bones
    and the bird___
    as a charcoal study
    in life.
    the meek
    shall in herit the embers.
