When camera could capture those great moments and photoshop could add the special effects, why should someone spend time painting? Painting is a mode to express one’s own feeling, a way to share the experience and show how world looks from an artist point of view.
In this painting, I want to show that, a ray of hope could bring changes even to those mind locked up inside the deepest darkness! On a gloomy day when Sun rays peek through and fog gets lifted, slowly everything starts to brighten up. That little ray brings warmth and positive energy. I view myself as those curious birds, ready to start the day with hopes to fly high in the sky!!!
What I especially like about your art is that it has a life lesson and beautiful story told by you. I am new to art but old in years and your art is just magnificent. I too have taken classes with Wilson Bickford. The latest one I took was the knife painting of the angle. I live not far from him and have the good fortune to call him a friend. I also have a facebook page where I share my hobbies: art and woodworking. Facebook.com/PapasGallery
Thanks for your kind words! Great to hear from you 🙂
