2am Doodle

I had a dream. Falling in cords of blue, spinning around; I was doll, a rag doll but then the wind caught me, wrapped me in gold and spun me into a bird.  

Forgive the doodle, it is 2am,

A Dream and a Question

It was cold, it was warm; sunlight broke intermittently through low clouds and blinded the shadows lying on the ground. 

“Turn around”, the intensity of the whisper burned the chilled sidewalk.  Although unheard, she paused, heart heavy in her wrists, the weight of his eyes on her shoulders; she curled her fingers into knots and just like that, those three moments between them became forever.  The stars marked it, the light watched it and the wind would carry it with her always.

Are we separate wings on the butterfly? Carrying life between us in the disguise of a body?  Or is that the illusion and we are each the butterfly in its entirety?

If she had turned around, would the moment have climaxed to perfection?  Or would the frailty of it been exposed, letting it fall like a house of cards?

Are the longings, desires between two people, are they piano notes hung in the sky to be turned into children’s bedtime stories? Are they just legends that could never be lived in ‘real’ life? Are they mirages we seem doomed to chase throughout our lives?

Is she frozen because she wants to turn or because she knows he wants her to turn? Are they reflecting each other?

Or is the Moment worth more than anything else?

A Walk in Gold (Original Art)

I started this piece a couple of months ago, 18 March 2015.

Just as I finished the back drop I 'lost' it; it being my idea, the moment and the emotion I was following; it completely evaporated.   Over the last few weeks I occasionally wander over to impatiently stare at it for a minute.  Sometimes I even pick up a paint brush and twirl it in my fingers. But nope, nothing flickers. 

Until this last Sunday morning.... ;)  I woke up at 5am from a dream.  In the dream I was walking, barefoot, in the glow of orange and yellow; I was in a field bathed in light.  Chortling to myself, I gleefully knew exactly where I wanted to be.  

First things first. Caffeine!    

I slipped out of bed, into yoga pants and down the stairs to flick on my coffee pot.  As it finished brewing, Char came to inquire. I poured a mug and I tossed my lovely cat on my shoulder to head back to my sacred place of plants, sunlight and brushes.  Char took his seat next to me on the chair and was out in two minutes.   

Five hours later, around 10am, I finished the sunrise portion and sliced the heavy paper to fit onto this 9" X 12"  canvas backdrop. Now to work on the second part of the piece.  I will re-post when done.
