Robe of Concealment
This painting was inspired by my Spirit Guides like all my paintings. It may stir the viewer to see what needs to be thrown away or torn down and whatever remains can provide us with an opportunity to recreate ourselves. There are many doors we walk through in our lives and this painting reminds us to close the door behind. Freeing us to do more things, which may help us to understand our choices and visions. Grounding us without unbalancing our personalities, helping us to awaken a Spiritual understanding, which can help to transmute our fears and accept our paths, whatever they may be.

Robe of Concealment belongs to the following groups:
A New Aesthetic.... Divine and Otherwise and Vibrant and Vivid ColorAvailable for sale as Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints, Canvas Prints and Framed Prints

The figure is almost like an abstract of “the scream”. Interesting.
Sophie Shapiro in reply to melbourne’s comment, 4 months ago
I can’t see that I’m afraid…but you may…which is fine! I find the scream very disturbing! I find this picture soothing. I’m only here for the beer, so what do I know! Thanks!S

Sophie, you’ve got the whole colour spectrum in this one. I see energy rising. A mother with child in arms. A massive creative force. Exciting! Delicious-I could eat it with a spoon or my hands for that matter.

Oh Sophie! The colors in this painting are just breathtaking! This has to be my absolute favorite thus far. I LOVE this! peace…

This paintings does change, depending on mood, weather and lighting. It’s good that you can see a robed figure and that the painting stimulates a deeper understanding of harmony and nature. It helps to find joy in life and enhances creative qualities. I’m very happy that you like it!Sx
Sophie Shapiro in reply to Makeba Kedem-DuBose’s comment, 4 months ago
Makeba I am so pleased that you like this painting…there is so much information applying to Spiritual, mental, emotional and physical needs. This painting helps to release creative blocks and the writer who owns this painting, constantly reminds me of that fact. I am so happy that so many people like it.Sx
Makeba Kedem-D..., 4 months ago
This is for me your most powerful painting. Sophie, I spent many years of my life wearing nothing but the color purple, not cuting my hair, and obstaining from many things. My creativity was at an all time high during this time of my life, and continues to be due to this time. Purple is the color of the crown chakra, and many other things. It is very powerful, as are all colors in their own way. I understand… peace
Sophie Shapiro in reply to Makeba Kedem-DuBose’s comment, 4 months ago
Makabe I only wear purple! And may occasionally add orange! Purple is wonderful. Helps in releasing old patterns of behaviour! Yes, and it is powerful…but I love it! Thank you for your wonderful input!Sx
Makeba Kedem-D..., 4 months ago
Interestingly enough, orange is my most favorite color! Sometimes connections find a way to make themselves. There are no coincidences. keep the peace…
Sophie Shapiro in reply to Makeba Kedem-DuBose’s comment, 4 months ago
Makeba you know that and I know that!!!!!!!!!! And time will make us aware of other things! Thanks for making me laugh today!Sx

I looked thru the whole portfolio tonight… looking for an image that best suits my mood of the night. Interesting how the comments that are given are connected.. and when a connection is made.. it is special to me. There was one on 17 and on 4.. but this one I am particular to. The view of rotation can be varied.. the green in the light on the upper left seems to be my leveler as wellas the diagonal line. The swirl of various colors stimulate all areas of your frame… compared to others that you have used two or three colors. As time goes on.. I see different changes of forms in your presentation.. nice job.
John Fish, about 1 month ago
beautiful visual experience. I usually love abstractions as emotional energy without making them into objects. but for some reason this seems to swim around and take various forms. I have this feeling there is a circus performance just behind a screen and everything is moving and revolving
Sophie Shapiro in reply to LAmBChOp’s comment, about 1 month ago
I am so touched that you looked at my portfolio and thrilled that you found some inspiring! I too look for connections which are so important to me so understand you fully. Thank you for your wonderful words and positive feedback! I shall go and look at 17 and 4. I appreciate your sentiments and interest! Thank you once again!Sx
