Layers: Trying to Control

The inspiration for this piece and in part for the series.
Matthew 6:34: Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

We try to plan, set goals and control our lives, and also paint over the past mistakes. Create layers over the past, possibly failures, but at the end of it all only God can truly create a clean slate. We can try to control as much as possible but one simple phone in the middle of the day can change the outcome of our plans. Control seems doable, but only God knows our future. He really is the one in control.

Layers I: Looking Back

“Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.”
Job 13:15.
At this moment in my life these words from Job ring true in my heart. After 32 years of living for the Lord I have learned that no matter what comes and goes God is still faithful and without a doubt has my life in His hands.
This new piece is the beginning of this body of work that has a working title of “Layers”. It is a reflection, a visual essay on a persons life, and the lack of control we have for the lows and highs of it. I hope to do justice to what I feel in my heart about it.

Layers: The Process.

My first piece in a series which has a tentative title of “Layers”. It follows a bit on my previous body of work, Changes, which dealt with an abstract view of our lives has they go from dreams, goals to reality. This series in a way will deal more with how we are, beings of multiple layers, with good, bad, happiness and sadness. As we explore our lives paths with acquire different experiences, which mold us into our present selves. I hope to do it justice.

Changes XX: But A Vapour, last piece of the Series.

What feelings emerge from the combination of shapes and colors in this artwork? This piece displays a meticulous blend of organic forms with geometric precision. The upper section features intricate patterns, reminiscent of natural textures, contrasting with the lower half orderly circles. These spheres cascade across the composition, their uniformity providing a soothing balance to the lively top. Observe how the shades of purple and pink unify the artwork, while hints of blue and orange weave through the patterns, crafting an engaging visual texture. Consider how the contrast between chaos and order invites exploration of the balance between spontaneity and control in your perception.

Last piece in the Series Changes, which consists of a total of 20 paintings.

Artrepreneur Pro Account

Today I signed up to be completely represented by https://artrepreneur.com/ . I have been with them for over a year using their free representation model which brings some but not allow the tools that a pro account those. I’m hopping this will lead to more exposure since many of my works are curator favorites, but by not having a pro account the exposure is a bit limited. I’m excited by the possibilities and the greater exposure to interested collectors.

Calmness in the Process

There are certain moments in my life that provide me with an exceptional time to create. It might seem strange to some to hear that I was up until 3:00 a.m. working on a piece. But after raising a family, providing for them, instructing them, and most importantly making sure that their spiritual needs were met, I found myself looking for any time along that could be used to create. So through out the years, 31 years of marriage and counting, I learned that the 10:00pm to the wee hours of the night/morning provided the best time for my creative juices to work. It was in these late times that I was able to find Calmness in the Process. It was in these times when the air was still, the background noise ceased and I could then focus on creating. This latest piece Changes XVIII: Winter’s Glow, is almost finished. After I filmed this short video last night I continued to add to it, and now I’m very close to being done both with this piece and the Series Changes. Where am I going next? Not sure, a few things are in mind, but no commitment yet on any.
