Burning spirit
Coals within
Glowing hot
Never dim
Yellow flame
Golden eye
Inner heat
Desires cry

Her Heart Has Wings
Her heart has wings,
for more than flight.
They give her strength.
They give her sight.
Her heart has wings,
battered by the wind.
They do not break.
They help her bend.
Her heart has wings,
that can’t be tied.
And hopes and dreams.
That won’t be denied.
Her heart has wings,
for so much more.
Her body has limits.
But her spirit will soar…

This piece was discovered while I was creating a colorful abstract painting. I say “discovered” because often when I create, I simply apply the medium and and the work reveals itself. Michelangelo said it best: I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free. I will wash, blow and splatter everything away from the painting until I find it. “Dark Swan” appeared to me and really spoke to my soul. It is dark, but there is lightness there also. Just like the soul…..

I have really been working hard lately. I am not sure why but I have more creative energy than I have ever had. So I will leave you with another Michelangelo quote which best describes what I do each day: If people knew how hard I worked to get my mastery, it wouldn’t seem so wonderful at all.

There is something very musical in the way I paint. The fluidity feels a lot like dancing. In fact, sometimes I do dance while I work. I always have music playing and this piece is a pure reflection of me…my art….The Dancer:
