“Never Alone”

Painting Acrylic on Canvas

Sharon Cummings

2003

My “Never Alone” painting has always been one of my most popular pieces. It’s true that blue is a soothing color and many people like it, but I believe that it is the sentiment that draws people in.  As I sell a lot of this image around the Holidays, it makes me pause and say a prayer of gratitude for the life I now have.  I also ask for comfort to those who will not be having a “happy” Holiday season.

I know what it is like to have Christmas marred by pain and suffering.  When I was 10 years old, my father killed himself just a few short days before the magical event.  I can still see the carefully wrapped gifts under the tree as we gathered after the funeral.  I remember thinking that I didn’t want anything ever again for Christmas.  For many years the Holidays were just a painful reminder of what was missing and what would never be.  It wasn’t until I had my own child that the joy was brought back to the Season.  Her zeal and delight in all things festive is infectious.  It was her energy that helped heal me.

So for those that mourn loss or those that are hanging on to the sick, I wish that you feel that you are never alone…Whether you believe in God, angels or just the healing energy of others…

Summer is in full swing and I am headed to the beach for a few days.  It’s already pretty hot, but for us Floridians, it is the perfect time to splash in the surf.  The water is nice and cool and the tourists have all gone home.  Enjoy my latest painting “Making Waves” while I enjoy some of my own. 🙂

What’s Your Favorite Color?

People always ask me about my favorite color.  That really is a hard question because I love ALL of the major colors and most of the secondary and beyond. Can I say that color is my favorite color?  Actually, it is green.  I’ve always had an affinity for this beautiful hue. It is so full of life and growing energy.  It makes me feel healthy and alive.  I lean toward the brighter shades up to lime green, but am equally comfortable with the rich earthy olives.  It’s a versatile shade.  I particularly enjoy pairing it with hints of blue as you see in my newest painting “Life Song”.  In this piece I believe the yellow is “green with envy”. 😉

Love Has No Fear

There is no fear in love. Perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment.  Love has to do with acceptance and protection.  This is not something I understood growing up…..I had to learn what healthy love meant. Once I did…..my whole world just opened up.

This piece of art started as an acrylic abstract on Yupo.  Many months later I saw a cliff in the painting and the idea of a tree came to me which then evolved into a symbol for true love.  It is a mixed media piece that combines three elements (background, tree and heart) created separately and then beautifully married on the computer.  The results are very satisfying to me.

Peaceful Understanding

What is forgiveness?  Wikipedia says:  Forgiveness is the intentional and voluntary process by which a victim undergoes a change in feelings and attitude regarding an offense, lets go of negative emotions such as revenge, with an increased ability to wish the offender well.^[1][2][3] Forgiveness is different from condoning (failing to see the action as wrong and in need of forgiveness), excusing (not holding the offender as responsible for the action), pardoning (granted by a representative of society, such as a judge), forgetting (removing awareness of the offence from consciousness), and reconciliation (restoration of a relationship).^[1]

I believe it is a peaceful understanding that your health and happiness are more important than a painful event or the person that inflicted it.  It is a letting go and a knowing that you no longer need to keep being punished by the past.  That you deserve better than those memories.  It comes from loving and approving of yourself.

Peaceful Understanding……

I have a lot of artwork stored in my computer.  I’ve listed some pieces, only to take them down later due to lack of interest.  But what I have found is that I can continue to work with a piece at a later date to create something entirely new and fresh that DOES get a lot of attention!  This is a very new process for me.  In the past, when I was done, I was done.  I never went back to an old piece to rework it. I think that the digital age has really helped me over this hump.  Out with the old and in with the new!
