SHE LIVED IN THE GARDEN...

she's just about finished..






flower petals dropped on her clothing










this is how it all started...



with stencils and paint lids and spray paint, oh my...



i have so much to share about art but my heart is too heavy at this time.


i shall be leaving next tuesday, hoping to touch and kiss my mother's cheek, one last time. if not i have let her go and have blown kisses on her wings to fly away, leaving pain and craziness behind.


i wish you all, artful loving days ahead, my mama would wish this for you too.


XOXO

    Wanda you have created a delicate art work filled with soft gentle layers, its contemplative, perhaps a reflection of this moment in time. A hug to you - at this time.

    Oh Wanda, thinking of you now and for day to come. I recall and at the time I didn't realize the number of things we grieve for, so much, and even for ourselves and dawninag realizations.

    Art was so important to me as I worked through so much, as I said so much I didn't recognize.

    Lovely art, this post and the previous post, I also have a great understanding of being lost in the garden.
