personal symbols

Title: Personal Symbols
Mixed Media Collage

This is my favorite way to work... a blank canvas, a variety of painting tools, absolute quiet, and no preconceived idea of what may or may not turn out. After about three days of free play, the symbols began to appear, each one silently whispering to me, I continue to glue and paint, add and subtract until the shapes and symbols take a life of there own. Sometimes an emotional healing will take place, or a message is conveyed to me or the viewer. At this time I know that it's time to move on...to create something new.
