acryl on canvas I believe the painting is self-explanatory…..had i been gifted as a writer, well then perhaps it would be a written piece…but none-the-less…..the story is told in color and imagry…compelled to paint this and awoken by the feeling at 4 am…..stayed up 3 dys till finished….coffee, cigs, water, and of course music………..
She is like the “woman atlas” she is carrying the world upon her shoulders as mother, wife, friend, daughter, and although circumstances have broken and disappointed her a bit, she is so strong, she still has that world up there! Carry On!
Helene, I feel as if you painted this just for me! “And her heart still beats”! Laughing The fact is that after 13 heart surgeries, my heart doesn’t beat at all; I am alive by batteries, pacemakers and wires (and I like to add….mirrors!). I am a cyborg! A Fembot! Truly, Helene, my metaphorical and symbolic heart STILL BEATS, from sheer will! Choice is will. Will is choice. Your painting just so reminded me of how alive I really am! (That is no small statement!) Tell me, Helene, how many hearts does a woman have to grow in a lifetime? I love your new profile photo! Thank you for the celebration you sparked in my head tonight!….Isn’t it great that it all doesn’t have to make sense?!!!!
