In time. In place. In spirit. It just has to be....Green Rhapsody by Elizabeth Chapman

Green Rhapsody

30 x 30 inch

Acrylic

"Love doesn't have to be on Valentine's Day. It doesn't have to be by the time you turn eighteen, or thirty-three or fifty-nine. It doesn't have to conform to whatever is usual. It doesn't have to be kismet at once, or rhapsody by the third day. It just has to be. In time. In place. In spirit. It just has to be." David Levithan

Some paintings, as this one 'Green Rhapsody' available by clicking: HERE ,flow easily and come together quickly, others take a while longer.   In either process, knowing when to let it be is key. It doesn't have to be rhapsody at once or by the third date. The majority of the time it's perservering, patience and continuing to be there as it progresses through stages that at times can be ever so frustrating and ugly. To see beauty emerge from the messes is the reward. That's life too. Bringing it all together into one harmonious piece. In the big picture, I imagine God doing that exact same thing with our lives. In time, in place, in spirit....it just has to be.

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to his purpose.  Romans 8:28

CENOTE An underwater illusion

                               CENOTE  by Sally Fraser

An underwater illusion. Cenote is a water cave in Spanish. If you are a swimmer , you can imagine swimming out of the cave up into the sunlight. The water is crystal blue , cold and pure. Swimming  is one of my passions and this painting was not planned, but just happened as I was painting with my Tuesday group and as it progressed and was finished that day everyone was stunned. Another artist said to call it Cenote! 

Acrylic on a 24 x 30 wrapped canvas with 2 in sides.

Hitchcock makes an appearance.

I spent Sunday working with Karen Raus who has an amazing studio.  Karen takes amazing photographs and works in encaustics  to transform them into unique artworks. I had the pleasure of joining her in working in making 2 encaustics. I stuck with my watercolor medium as the base but added Alfred Hitchcock on the left  for one of his  quick appearances. Who can forget his signature theme song. Once it is in your head it is going to stay there for awhile.
I loved adding the collage pieces that I made from torn paper which I painted and then soaked in gold based wax. The dark spots are walnut ink. Did I mention Karen has great art supplies. A real treasure trove for an artist.
This is a 6″ by 6″ encaustic work on a 1″ deep cradle board. Looks great hanging on the wall.
