and the old man prays
This piece has a special place in my memory bank.
Let me share the history of the art with you. I painted this art upside down. I had a deadline and couldnt quite get the 'feeling' in his face down. I was stuck. So...in desperation I flipped him over and grabbed a sponge and went to town. It turned out perfect. And the relfection from the glasses? Looks like it would be pretty easy doesnt it? took me weeks !! to perfect...but, it was achieved the same say. This time it was Frustration. I flipped the canvas upside down once more, and grabbed a sponge but this time I painted it Left handed.
IT WORKED.. To this day, this is one of my top favorites because of the history of the making of this piece of art. It was a mothers day gift for my mother. I made my deadline.
And THAT is why this art has special meaning to me.

I painted the undercoat of the canvas with several coats of flat black. I then painted parts of the face. I was going to use the base face as the shadows and paint flesh over it, but I liked it so much this way, I left it.

"Heaven and Hell" series of three
I see I might need to explain this art before you view it. Im usually all about love/pain. Thats when I paint the best.
Painting to express and work through pain or anguish sounds like a great idea, and I hope it helped me.
This was the angry side of me. Which Ive never painted/expressed before..
My furry companions of almost 20 years died last year...all three of them...within six months. Now THATS some pain. I felt very angy that it happened and that they left me. But the angriest was at myself, because I had to put two of my pets/babies to sleep. Thats a haunting kind of pain. Its really horrible. And probably always will be.
And then my feelings were more on the lonely side. Without the patter of two kitties and a puppy romping around my ankles ...oh, I felt so alone...Part of my family was no longer. I felt the only way to purge myself of these feelings, was to put that expression on canvas. Kind of like a diary. Therapy.
So, I painted the series "Heaven and Hell". I painted them in 3 stages.
"Demons" was my first piece....Lots of Anger in the beginning.

The second piece is "Pergatory" Thats when the anger ended and the loneliness happens. You dont feel too much, but you desperately want to go on with your life.

Then, when I painted most of the pain out of my heart I painted
"Angel of Mercy".
I think I can go on with my life now, and paint something with a new beginning. Something more gentle. More peaceful.
Does that make sense???

Personally, my answer would be after that to knock back several shots of tequila, go to the gym, and beat the crap out of the Heavy Bag.
Whatever works!

THE WARRIOR'S PRAYER
I am what I am.
In having faith in the beauty within me, I develop trust.
In softness I have strength.
In silence I walk with the gods.
In peace I understand myself and the world.
In conflict I walk away.
In detachment I am free.
In respecting all living things, I respect myself.
In dedication I honor the courage within me.
In eternity I have compassion for the nature of all things.
In love I unconditionally accept the evolution of others.
In freedom I have power.
In my individuality, I express the God-Force within me.
In service I give of what I have become.
I am what I am:
Eternal, immortal, universal, and infinite.
And so be it.

Not Feeling Joyful? Grab the Mop and a bottle of wine.
Fake it till you make it.
Cleaning isn’t on Barbara's melodic list of favorite things, but maybe it should be.
When you feel a little down in the dumps, just 20 minutes of brisk housework could have you back to your happy, toe-tapping self. Worth a try, right? When I was a kid, I remember my mom used to dance in the kitchen with a mop. What mememories.
Hate mopping and sweeping? Go for a walk instead. As long as it lasted for at least 20 minutes, making the place sparkle or walking at least once a week reduced depression by up to 20 percent in a study. Why? Because when physical activity goes up, physical stress goes down -- and your mood benefits.
Then go get the wine.
