Tumbling

Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas

36" x 36"

This painting sold over the weekend at the Art Deck Show.  The collectors who purchased this painting said that they were looking for a contemporary piece for their home in Taos, NM.  But after discussions, they thought it might work in their Dallas home.  So either way, this abstract has a new home!  Thanks for viewing this blog.  Kay

A New Life

A New Life

32” X 32” Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! II Corinthians 5:17

This scripture has special meaning for me. When I starting painting, “A New Life” I was thinking that a butterfly was a symbol of new life. Something that is new, fresh, colorful and full of life.

I started painting this butterfly two months ago. At that time, my mother of 83 years was in failing health, and her decline in health was evident. I was painting along, thinking that a butterfly was a beautiful creature, and suddenly I was called away. My mother had passed away. It was expected, but unexpected. It was a sorrowful time for our family.

When I returned to the unfinished canvas, I recalled the memorial service for my mother, and one of the scripture readings was II Corinthians 5:17. I could now go ahead and finish the painting. I needed to put new life and color on the canvas. Knowing that God is with us. I am posting this painting in memory of my mother, Mary Lou and it will be hanging at the RLBC Arts Festival later this week. The show information is below. Happy Mothers Day to all!
