Where pain subsides

this is intense..i enlarged this, recommend you all do..there is a window (at least for me) the title is perfect. there are many thoughts that go thru my head when i look into this …when i was young,very young.. i would always draw stairs..finding a way out..a way out of my thoughts or of my stuff…..pain when shoved deep..swallowed…hidden…or abanded has to go thru so many channels to find the window ..pain when alllowed to breathe in the air of light subsides..

your work brings up thought..that is something i just really love about it…some so deep it could be talked about for days and some is just a beautiful thought that brings a calm happiness..

this is one that will bring some real good writing out.. terri

Evocative and powerful work!

Liesbeth, Definitely … a picture within a picture…a word within a word…this is absolutely
amazing…Sally xxoo

The perfect entry, too. I can’t wait to see Margpie’s words to go with it!

Follwed aspectsoftmk’s advice and enlarged it, and I’m glad I did. The details reveal new meaning. I agree, your art allows people to think and elve and try to understand. I can see it in some future museum or private collection next to Van Gogh and Da Vinci.

So wonderful in colours and design. Excellent creativity, I’m an admirer of your art!

Awesome painting! It has a familiarity about it, like I have been there before….but where? A crystal cave perhaps hidden in our mother’s bossom?

Wow!!!!

I want to go there! love your work, you inspire me….

Gorgeous

Amazing textures and depth…very well done

Very beautiful. So glad Terri led me to your work! The bond between the words and the art is so perfect. A must for the larger view as there is so much detail and atmosphere here

beautiful

I am blow away by the whole peice. Congratulations.

Beautiful piece. How long, to sing this song…? ( ref.,U2 Ps. 40) Hope that wasn’t too sappy of a reply. :)

Awesome!! LOLOLOLOL!

so much to see such detail I love the crystal effect throughout – very beautiful and mystical

Back again. Still loving this.

I love the title!

Congratulations to liesbeth and margpie!

Beautiful
Gorgeous mix of hues and texture

This is a most wonderful image

Absolutely perfect…the art and the poem…everywhere you are my friend is a place where pain subsides. xx

Great piece leaves so much for the imagination, I get associations with a burnt and or abandoned house somehow and more that is difficult to explain great art and words Paul :))))

The beauty here is other-worldly- heavenly, I think. Captivating and superb!

Awsome work both of you!!!!!!

Wow L this is awesome

beautiful…so much that i want to be there

Such a perfect collaboration Liesbeth – the words so perfectly express the hope in this incredible work of art. And the art itself draws me in to a place I want to be – surrounded by beauty and soul and spirit where “pain subsides.” I suspect it’s in that light just beyond…

Beautifuf, both the picture and the poem

Fantastic! like a dream

Beautiful artwork, and very dramatic

Wonderful ! Love the feel of it.

Absolutely fascinating picture – one of those I keep going back to see once again – brilliant work that goes straight to the favs :-)

this is stunning….like stairways leading into many rooms, some filled with darkness, and some filled with light and hope….. Such incredible spirit in here….

stunning image,

Awesome work

incredible work, so well done

Yes.. there are many kinds of pains, though all pass through heart and body.
The pain of the artist comes from a so profound vaccum and at the same tipy is full of energy that many times is clutching to it withoutletting it go. Blurred as this image, eroded, faded… while one is having the image to created… it does not actually coming…and it hurts.. of course… this is nothing comparing with other pains…. I know..but yet…it comes..it happens..not my case.. but in some very intense souls, a motiv for loosing their senses….. and even their souls.

fascinating work liesbeth :)

What an art piece, superb.

A gorgeous encaustic. I’m so impressed with the subtleties of the piece. And the poem is a delight.

I actually came to say, and will add here, thanks for submitting this to Solo Exhibition. :) I do appreciate it.

HI I am new here and have to say I find this painting beautiful and so haunting, the colours are outstanding. It makes me think of Titanic with a deserted dressing table on the right and the regal staircase to the left. We all have our own interpretations of a given image and this is mine. Absolutely wonderful !
