Tapestry of life – a work in progress

Image

This is a painting that I have been working on for months now.  This is a progress photo.  I’ve used acrylics and impasto medium to get the texture and today, I have spent time mixing white oils with linseed oil to layer over it.

The photo doesn’t really do it justice… I think that this painting will take a lot longer to complete as I am making it up as I go along.

When I look at it though, I feel like it is a representation of the tapestry of life and the many interconnections we each have when we relate to other people, animals and nature.  I feel peaceful when I am working on this painting and maybe that is because it is neutral.  In a way, I feel it represents the divine force of life inside me, reflecting back to me the layers and depths that I have yet to discover.

Fascinating stuff.  I do love art!

This is an up close image of the artwork before the oils have layered onto it as the first image is a bit hard to see.
