Becoming Original Artwork
This painting required a lot of patience, and challenged me to wait before continuing! Each layer had to dry completely before the next layer could be added. As the layers built up, a beautiful depth was achieved, and a richness of colour. Perhaps the lesson is that taking our time in life can yield better results. Delayed gratification gives a deeper experience, something worth waiting for.
It feels as though one is travelling through a tunnel towards the light, a birthing of a new light, a new level of consciousness perhaps. We all must experience the death and letting go of something in order to let something new in. We cannot solve life's problems with the same level of consciousness that created them. We must move through, birth and grow towards the light.
The original piece measures 56cm x 76cm and was created using watercolour paint on Fabriano paper.
