Sisters

Sisters
I used to draw and paint folk-art folk every once in a while but haven't in quite some time. Recently I was asked about doing some and so started thinking about them. I did several sketches this morning and then painted this one. It's just for my Sisters but kind of got me in the folk people mood.
A lot of people don't care for folk art, I've heard it call many things and none of them meant to flatter. Among those descriptions is often "childish" which I think fits it well. I think that it's thru simplistic childlike expression that we can often truly find ourselves and more easily speak the truth of our souls.

Anyway, it is what it is :)

Hope

I think that very often hope is overlooked. Maybe it's because it comes in unexpected ways, from unexpected places, in unexpected forms. Sometimes it might look odd or have a few sharp edges or feel a little rough around the corners. Sometimes it may not even resemble anything we can comprehend at all and yet, it's there just the same. Just waiting for us to see it for what it truly is, touch it, and give it life. Hope is funny that way, it's always there but cannot manifest without us to believe in it. Just like magic.

Mojo and The Tree

I haven't been creating much lately and it hasn't felt very good.

I woke up this morning and begin to paint :) :) :) Now i need to get some other things finished as well :) I don't mind having times when my mojo rests and I don't create, it's just part of the circling cycle, but it's so nice to have my full mojo back again :)
