Art to Bring Serenity Instead

I was originally planning on uploading a treat for you all, but you’ll have to wait until tomorrow. A friend of mine and I are starting a new project I hope you will find informative and exciting. It just didn’t work out today, so we’re hoping for tomorrow. Stay tuned! In the meantime…

I paint every day. This is a hand-painted woodcut I did not long ago. It’s available in my etsy and eBay stores (click above!). I like the mood this piece captured for me. I often get that my paintings are “lonely” and “serene”. For me, those two terms are not mutually exclusive. Even though I come across in my blog as a tormented type of person, I take some comfort in the fact that the effect I might have on my environment is at times serene. I hope I upset, disturb, annoy and offend that which needs to be upset, disturbed, annoyed and offended. And I hope I bring a sense of serenity into places that need it, including the many, many lonely people out there who are friendless, community-less, or church-less.
