"Healing Fields" Amy Tuso, Arizona Abstract Daily Artist

“Healing Fields”
Oil Abstract With Emerging Hummingbird

There are times that I hear the name of a painting prior to putting paint to canvas. It usually will happen as I am visualizing the colors and textures I would like to manifest.This was the case with “Healing Fields” but over the period of time that this painting was actually coming to life it went through a change that surprised me on the final day.

I had an image in my minds eye that an abstract floating flower should be somewhere. However, as I picked up my paint-loaded brush to introduce this flower I had a nagging instinct that a flower was not meant to be afterall. Almost simultaneously with that thought process I saw this beautiful hummingbird appearing on the canvas. The hummingbird came together almost effortlessly along with a sense of calming.

In Native American culture, the hummingbird represents love, opening the heart to the celestial magic and as it sings its Hummer-song there is a vibration of pure joy.
