Art isn’t paint; It’s love.” Phillip Hicken
This art…the Song Of Hope.. was created in the lovely inspirational collage class of Petra Hrziwnatzi. She says…”I truly believe that what you put your attention on grows, and with this philosophy in mind, I infuse my art with a lot of love and positive energy. I do this so that people can be inspired and uplifted every time they look at my art.” She combines beautiful words and images in her art. Click on her name link to check out her art and classes. Her class is perfect for beginning artists ( no drawing required..lol).
For me, as I choose the papers, the colors, and the textures my busy mind settles into a space where it is focusing on creating beauty. There are even layers of words, quotes and inspiration below the paint. Layers of love. No wonder art is good for my soul.
In this one, the Song of Hope, the art whispers:
…it is safe to unfold my wings, to share my art even though I am still a beginner, to be soft and gentle like the color of the wings, to sing with joy like the birds
What does it whisper to you?
with Love
