This Moment - 7/29

{this moment} - A weekly ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.

When We Were But Stars

I started a new painting (or three) today, with the idea of creating a visual version of a poem I wrote.  I've always loved art that comes in pieces, so this was done on three different canvases.  Normally I finger paint with acrylics on canvas, but today I wanted to play with spray paint.  This is a combination of spray paint and acrylic fingerpainting.

The poem:

I've loved you once before
maybe when we were but stars
the sky our playground

The lines that define will never be simple
the heart that is whole
will laugh and cry

Until we combine again,
dancing, shining, existing, love.


The painting:




The stars have tiny beads adhered for texture, a technique I was inspired to try by an artist I met in Las Vegas last weekend.
