Phoenix; a mythical bird that dies in flames and is reborn from the ashes ( Wikipedia) All profits of this painting will be going to the Victorian Bushfire Relief Fund. / If you want to donate too go here I may fall down a thousand times..i know by now i have the strength to rise again also…. This past weekend someone showed me a video about an australian guy without limbs… he was talking to a group of schoolgirls and at a certain point he showed them his vulnerabillity by falling down… teaching them you can give in at that point and say i can’t get up on my own.. but you can also decide to give it a go.. and keep trying untill you find a way… trusting in god and in your own strength.. The vid. brought tears to my eyes… so often i thought i had hard times in my life.. seeing this guy enjoying his life to the fullest made me once more aware it is all about how you look at life, sure we all get our moments where we have our doubts.. but we can decide to step out of the downwards and create something else for ourselves it is a matter of creating other thoughts… Easy??? No… but determination is the keyword… the will to change.. the will to accept the gift of life in all its aspects and the abillity to see it is all about the journey we take from one life to the other. Serenity prayer

Inspiration Amarantine lyrics You know when you give your love away / It opens your heart, everything is new / And you know time will always find a way / To let your heart believe it’s true You know love is everything you say / A whisper, a word, promises you give / You feel it in the heartbeat of the day / You know this is the way love is Amarantine / Amarantine / Amarantine / Love is, love is, love… Amarantine / Amarantine / Amarantine / Love is, love is, love… You know love may sometimes make you cry / So let the tears go, they will flow away / For you know love will always let you fly / How far a heart can fly away Amarantine / Amarantine / Amarantine / Love is, love is, love… Amarantine / Amarantine / Amarantine / Love is, love is, love…. Amarantine / Amarantine / Amarantine / Love is, love is, love…. You know when love’s shining in your eyes / It may be the stars falling from above. / And you know love is with you when you rise, / For night and day belong to love Enya Encaustic A5 / tools,hotplate, tissue,palletknife, sponge, styler / medim;coloured waxblocks

When i think of Peace.. i see a bright white light with soft pastels, it feels soft, inviting, not judging and warms my heart. Hope when you look at my painting you can share in my feeling.. Mercy now Info over Sing Mercy Now / One day not too long ago I received an e-mail from a wonderful young man in Israel, Shay Guwetta, telling me that he’d recorded my song Mercy Now in Hebrew. When he sent me the MP3, I loved it. I put it up on my web site for everyone to hear, and told people about it at shows. A few weeks later, I played a private party in Manhattan, and I told the story about the wonderful cover of Mercy Now in Hebrew. Well, I had no idea that the Palestinian Ambassador to the US was in the audience. He came up to me after the show, and encouraged me to come to Palestine. He seemed a little put off by my glowing endorsement of the Hebrew version of my song. It dawned on me that I’d love to have an Arabic version of Mercy Now in addition to the Hebrew version. Then it hit me that I’d love to hear a version of Mercy Now translated into in as many languages as possible, especially the languages of places where war and political upheaval cause great pain and suffering. I am inviting musicians from everywhere to send in a version of Mercy Now in their musical own musical style and in their native language to SingMercyNow@gmail.com, and we’ll post them up on the SingMercyNow Myspace page for the world to listen to. Who knows, we might lighten a few loads out there. / Mary Gauthier / / Mercy now in different languages Encaustic A4 / tools; hotplate,hotairgun / medium; coloured waxblocks
