Statement

and yet another potential new series of investigation unfolds for me.


i feel so bleeeeeessed. Having eyes that see beyond myself. Having eyes that are not to heavily burdened... by what it seems to me, so many others do. To much of the world is LOST, burdened by racism, nationalism, hatred, greed or religious zeal. We are learly NOT seeing with eyes of truth. Eye of wisdom beyond our own naval if you can still see it. If you FEEL me haller!

So selfish as I am... OS American... I have been putting my zeal toward my own personal spiritual & artistic improvement. For the past couple of decades anyway. So when I have them I try to ACT.

So these are two pieces resulting from the idea of painting my daughter... Then as I got to it. I saw other very important messages. The Father's love for his daughter... Other father's and their love of their daughters... What they might look like. The daughters, the fathers perhaps. What my daughter might look like if I were different. Again back to the concept 4 winds, 4 colors, 4 races... and I thought hey let's just go there.

Two new pieces titled:
La hija blanca
La hija roja

La hija blanca - the white daughter. This piece could easily be titled la hija rosa - the pink daughter. As the facial pigmentation has a nice light rose color. This is a portrait of my daughter if you haven't figured it out yet. :-)

The second piece is titled; La hija roja - The red daughter.
