Some paintings/artwork come with the idea of improving oneself
or the aspects of accomplishments in the past present and
future. This happens to be one of them with symbols, animal
totems, and certain words representing one’s plight are sometimes
hidden the background of the painting. I find I journal first,
sometimes with each item mentioned or I write an entry of
thoughts and feelings and then paint over it. It is how I start each

The Moon and the Raven – some thoughts
Mapping highlights and shadows in a drawing as in life. Do you have a reference for life? Someone as a guide. The answers could be in mid-tones. Should one blend all the layers? Is there a fourth tone. So many questions. Blend all. Find the shadows, the mid-tones and lights. Draw a map. Draw a raven if even in your mind. Trace around the shadows with words or pencil. Leave some of your life in a collage, let it peak through. Most is transparent. Some is secretly lingering in the past of one of the dark tones. The missing flower I don’t understand, why?

her memories are cherished as the freedom she has come to
embrace.
