“In nature, some seeds lie dormant in anticipation of the season most conducive to their growth. This is true of art as well. There are ideas whose time has not yet come. Or perhaps their time has come, but you are not yet ready to engage with them. Other times, developing a different seed may shed light on a dormant one.” ~Rick Rubin, The Creative Act: A Way of Being I am so loving this newly arrived book. I haven’t been posting much this week…it’s been a hectic week, and the garden is beautiful and there’s just been a lot else to do. The time off from posting has also given me an opportunity to look at several ‘in progress works’ that I had set aside to let percolate, so to speak. This one…was difficult for me in that the underpainting was one I got very attached to…it was about portals, specifically the portal of grief…. It was darker and had depth and power and flow, yet it honesty began to beg me for more light..and then more light and color …and then it began to literally ‘take wings’ and changed completely!! ‘The Wisdom of Wings’…is now the working title. Returning to it seems as if I literally went through a very sacred portal…from a darkness into a radiance of hope and light. ✨💜✨ The Wisdom of Wings Acrylic, acrylic metallic gold and antique gold (not easily picked up in photos, and the painting also shimmers and changes in different lighting) 11 x 14” on canvas © Katherine St John
