Waiting for my Father

Waiting for My Father is an inspired piece based on a recent experience with a young lady whose father treats her like a princess.

Waiting 2

I was going for a soft, gentle moment, a transfiguration of mind and body. I wanted swirls of light and soft colors to grow into stronger ones that form her and give her wholeness.

Waiting 1

This is why her body isn’t in a solid state until you get to her torso.  She’s morphing and growing as she waits for her Father patiently.

Waiting for My Father is along the same lines as the painting called Sanctuary. Both are available on Redbubble in various print formats. Please see my sidebar for the Redbubble link.

A little angel in blue kneels in confidence.

In My Prayers

I’m currently working on a small oil  on canvas based on the original sketch.  It will be kept simple so that nothing overshadows the precious moment of the child.

Whitewash Angel

This is one of three child angels in a dream I had not long ago. In the dream there were three children each on a pole. I’ve had the dream twice now so I’m in the process of painting all three children.

I will walk in your garden

I will oversee its prosperity

I will sing the sunflower’s lullaby

Painting details: Two large sunflowers, blue swirls of life at the heart of the flowers. There’s a red headed angel in a long blue robe standing as overseer of the garden.

The Heart of Light

Published on January 26, 2009 in Angels, ART GALLERY, Black Children, Butterflies, Children, Fantasy, Flowers and Innocence Gallery. 3 Comments

The light swirls around her legs, up through her butterfly wings and out of her fingertips. She touches the tallest flower and it continues to grow. Together they stand in The Heart of Light.

Painting details: The little girl’s wings are partially transparent. The stem of the large flower is shaped into a heart at the little one’s feet. All the flowers come from the heart, all light is directed at the heart. There’s one small ladybug in the far right corner of the painting. And of course there’s a sunflower in her brown hair.
