Today’s #painting and #drawing progress. First, continuing the mark making oil painting but focused more on tree roots and lower branches. Second, continuing progress on graphite drawing on 18×24-inch newsprint. #Art #Spiritchat #KindledConnection

Drawing is a conversation between light and form.
As Robert Henri said in The Art Spirit, 'The hand must obey the spirit'. #art #drawing #portrait #KindledConnection

Each of us holds a voice that seeks form through our #art. It speaks in color, rhythm, and silence, the unmistakable tone of our own spirit. #KindledConnection #Spiritchat

Still working on her. What began as a painting assignment with a limited palette has turned into a study of patience, color, and quiet transformation.

“Doubt thou the stars are fire… but never doubt I love.”
Millais’ Ophelia came to mind while watching the 2018 film. Beauty, sorrow, and silence intertwined.

One year ago today, I painted my first abstract and returned to art after nearly two decades. I did not know where it would lead; I only knew that I needed to begin again.
It is never too late to return to what you love.

Finished my very first #drawing #portrait.
The act of seeing with love changes everything.
Perhaps that is what not just art but life, invites us to do: to witness the ordinary until it becomes extraordinary.

A city drawn in charcoal and silence.Each shadow a memory, each line a breath.
Silence does not fade with sound; it becomes what remains.

A graphite city drawn in stillness.
Each line a breath. Each reflection, a quiet waiting.
Silence, too, has structure;
it holds light and thought in place.

The Winged Victory of Samothrace.
Weathered by time, yet her spirit still ascends.
Even what cannot be restored can rise whole in spirit.

What we see above is only an echo of what lies beneath.
The visible is the reflection, shaped by what cannot be seen.

Each mark began in stillness.
Each line carried a whisper.
As I drew, the woman began to emerge from quiet listening.
There’s a moment when form becomes more than shape… when it begins to feel alive.
That’s the moment I wait for. #Spiritchat #KindledConnection #art #drawing #portrait

A lantern, a shadow, and the light waiting within.
This charcoal still life taught me that darkness is never empty.
It holds memory, quiet, and the promise of return.

Two pears in quiet conversation between light and shadow.
Stillness revealing what is sacred when we pause to see.
Stillness Made Visible - a new reflection on Kindled Connection.

Before color awakens, there is silence.
Before voice arises, there is listening.
Shaping Whispers into Form explores how drawing becomes a language of stillness and silence begins to speak through the hand. #ArtAsMeditation #KindledConnection

Protection isn’t about walls, it’s about discernment.
Silence teaches us what is sacred; courage helps us guard it with love.
What helps you protect what is sacred within you? #Spiritchat #KindledConnection
