"The Kiss of the Sun for pardon,
The song of the birds for mirth,
One is nearer God's
Heart in a garden,
Than anywhere else on earth."
Dorothy Frances Gurney
This is the collaged canvas that I showed yesterday. I worked all day on it but not sure if I love it. Don't know why. Sometimes, things aren't just quite right and I can't put my finger on it. Maybe Mattie Lou created this---then, if so, --- it's just right. I actually think she did. No offense, Mattie Lou, I just didn't recognize you for a minute there.
Mattie lou is my little child artist inside. No, I am not on medication for this. It's an art thang...
martha, you are too funny!! of course, now that i think of it, i'm not on medication for my art, my art IS my medication! :)
ReplyDeleteI think this is absolutely beautiful! And, no, I don't think you need medication! ;)
ReplyDeleteI just stumbled across your blog today. So glad I did! :D
This is wonderful Martha, it has an innocence about it so maybe your inner child did paint it, LOL. Tell you inner critic to be still - I love it.
ReplyDeleteDear Martha,
ReplyDeleteI LOVE near God's heart in a garden!! ...and I so totally understand your "mattie lou" moments that it's scary...
Did you read "The Artist's Way.." by Julia Cameron?
