They're all lovely, but the 4 and the 5 are particularly atmospheric. Keep going!
Of course not. I think real situations lend power to art.Sidhe-Ra said:Hi Helvetica- I was actually thinking of you and your situation when I painted this, perhaps it shows? I hope you don't mind.
Ok, I see - yes. I have known that state, in the past - almost 15 years ago. I remember it well - the loss and pain become almost a comfort, the last remaining thread to the lost love.Sidhe-Ra said:As for the title, I was trying to convey a pain that is difficult to leave behind- so much that you make it a part of yourself and become reluctant to move on-(not a comment on your situation, by the way).
Oh, I didn't notice the wind changing! It's very apparent, now I look at it again. And yes - the signs of growth and spiritual discovery - even by accident - jump out of the card.Sidhe-Ra said:But there are clues to what is there to be found when the pain passes; the growing flowers, one which is still just a bud, the golden toad, symbolic of spiritual growth and knowledge, and something that happened quite by accident- the rain is blowing in a different direction to everything else in the picture. The wind is changing!
