The unfinished, behind it all



“..When in your reality you paint a picture it is finished, completed; and yet even in that context it outlives your completion of it and endures… some of the Old Masters were adept at painting scene of violence and warfare. Sagas with dark …atmospheres, yet each so filled at the same time with vitality that the canvases themselves seemed alive. Even paintings of great destruction spoke of the great creative energy behind the talent that vitalized the very medium and by its very creativity denied the very strength of the destruction so cleverly depicted.

The greatest Old Masters felt the inner selfs’ great integrity and its connection with All That is. And each in her own way through painting tried to represent the energy and show it to others. The energy behind it all..”Vol 2 Deleted Sessions , page 353
