PrayerWheel
Description
This painting came about in a 2-day ritual of prayer and concern for my mother who was ill and well cared for but 3,000 miles away. I spoke with her every day. This was a time of particularly emotional and psychic discomfort for her and me as well. I painted a personal symbolic abstraction of a real-time prayer into the 95% of life force that is what physicists call dark matter and dark energy. I poured multiple rings and stretches until I could physically feel and visualize a connection within my being and sincerely ask for grace in the unknown. In the end, I added the turquoise dots in response. What I wish to share in this painting is the process of inner access through art.
