The Work of the Hand
I am doing a new series of paintings based on the hand – the symbolism, the ritual, the meditative function. I’m exploring how the placement of our hands effect our emotions and spiritual perception. Here are the first paintings in that series:
“Ask” mm/paper 14″ x 20″
“Receive” mm/paper 14″ x 20″
“Only the Hand that Erases Can Write the True Thing” – Eckhart
mm/paper 10″ x 12″
“What We Plant in the Soil of Contemplation We Shall Reap in the Harvest of Action” – Rumi
mm/paper 10″ x 10″
“Your Deepest Need and Desire is Satisfied by the Moment’s Energy Here in Your Hand” – Rumi
mm/paper 7.5″ x 8″
“Open Your Hands if you Want to be Held” – Rumi
mm/paper 9″ x 9″
