This morning I awoke to rain, but this gave me a great excuse to open my box of paints..
Today I used Acrylics and had no idea what I wanted to paint.. I had an angel in mind to start with, then a I kept looking at the butterfly I painted last weekend.. I started with the swirl of bright yellow and just kept going with the flow, adding more swirls and then I saw in my mind a mandala.. It didn’t turn out how my mind had envisioned it.. But the mandala became the butterfly..
The Trees have been taking their fair share of battering’s here in the UK recently with some very stormy weather so I wanted to honour the trees, who listen so patiently to my whispers..
You can see more of my Tree Art and a poem I wrote about trees on my post My Creative Art~ Trees The first verse reads
oh mighty brothers that reach up high
Your branches swaying in breeze from sky
Tell me as I sit beneath your shade
What wisdom have you for me today….
Save our Tree’s… Click picture to enlarge
This is part of Tom’s over at Beyond the Sphere who set a challenge for April, anyone wishing to take part in producing a post with the theme of ‘Shining Through’ to be found Here ..
I wish you all a beautiful weekend..
Take care all of you.

Absolutely beautiful, Sue!!!! I have often wondered how one paints an Angel. The Angel I saw was pure white light. not wings, no face, just white light. I think you were inspired by Angels on this one. But then, all of your work is stunning. I’m looking for rain again too. I have inside work to get done. 🙂

I think maybe you are right dear Marlene.. I had slept well the night before, and had the desire to just paint.. usually I paint in several sittings which last at least a couple of days.. This one just painted itself in a few hours.. And I was pleased with the result. 🙂 I hope you are keeping well.. And will be by later to see how you are doing? xxx

It’s such a strange thing, transience. All life here is brief, in the continuum of what is perceived as time, yet we mourn the passing of those we love. I mourn the trees when they are damaged, as well! Because we live in a subtropical climate, everything grows and grows here. The county has machines that chomp the tree limbs (and often skin the trunks in the process) that are growing beside the roads. It’s hard watching it, as it leaves what it cuts ragged and damaged. But you know, most of these trees just rebound eventually (to be chomped again) – to my amazement. Still, I can’t help but feel this is less necessary than does the government. And let’s not even get into the ubiquitous use of Roundup on the grasses, as well … :*( Cheers, my friend, and hope you are enjoying your weekend! Love!

Joss thank you my friend.. The Feminine I felt was the tree of life itself.. I usually refer to trees as brothers.. Yet I also know there is always the matriarch within the forest the Mother of all trees within their particular wood.. I was going to put a forest on one of the mountains but I thought it more symbolic to leave the mountains barren.. For without trees the world would indeed be a barren place .. ❤

Interesting account of your painting process, evolving from colour and a thought. Your thoughts on mandala and the tree once again underline the essential oneness of the universe in a world wallowing in divisiveness. The great multitudes, unfortunately, cannot see beyond their nostrils, continuing in mindless greed and unsustainable consumption, in blissful ignorance of ultimate reality. Contributing to oxygenation of planet earth, the tree is our most precious possession. Your painting and the poem on the tree remind me of the morning hymn that used to be sung in school assemblies in the 1960s, which goes as ‘Akhilanda mandalam aniyichorukki, / athinullil ananda deepam koluthi / paramanu poruleelum sphuranamai minnum / parama prakashamey sharanam nee ennum…’ The word ‘mandalam’ in the first line is the same as Sanskrit ‘mandala’, meaning circle. ‘Akhilanda mandalam’ means ‘the entire cosmos’. In translation, the prayer means, ‘the entire cosmos appropriately dressed up / with the lamp of bliss duly lit up / making even the minutest particle sparkle in its brilliance / may I offer my salutation to that Eternal Light…’ Enjoy your Sunday, Sue…

Wonderful words DW. What sacred beings the trees are. I used to just gravitate towards the old timers with the massive trunks, but lately I have been pleased by the energy of the smaller, younger trees. Their energy may not be as wise but it is more alive as it is busy growing older….Great friends to have! Loved your art piece. A tall and purposeful tree joining energy with the sun…Nice 🙂 Hope your weekend was great. Hugs to you….VK ❤

Bit slow to get to this. But that didn’t lessen my admiration for what is a beautiful painting.

Beautiful painting. I love the warm colours. We do need to praise the trees. I watched them bending and wavering about in the really wild winds which swept me off my feet. They are so protective. 🙂

I don’t know why, but every time I go to your site for a catch up because I haven’t seen any of your posts on my reader, I find that I have to click follow again or sign up for emails. It’s a shame because I miss your posts sometimes and I enjoy reading them so much:-)
