When The Light Comes

This is the  sister painting to Night Hold.

When the Light Comes

The close up view shows rays of chaotic color held back by light. Her hand also pushes it back while the other reaches for what she needs and longs for.

When the Light Comes detail

The child is not afraid, she’s been waiting for her shining light to come. It’s not an end nor is it somewhere far away. She walks into hope right here, right now on the earth we know.

Night Hold is pictured below.

Splash – Chase the Rainbow

Splash - Chase the Rainbow

This updated version of Splash was nearly forgotten in a heap of old art. The first time I tried this painting I didn’t know what face the give the child so I didn’t add one at all. I liked how it turned out but I think this one is much more pleasing and expresses the joy I was going for.

Slash – Chase the Rainbow shows a young redheaded child splashing right through a rainbow with yellow galoshes and big bright orange umbrella. The painting shows pure joy and freedom as a child dances in the rain. Also shown is the sister painting called Raindrops.

The Heart of Light

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.
