ABSTRACT FLOWERS Jan 2014

I am inspired by the beauty of flowers. This an abstracted version of red flowers.     

Oil on Canvas Abstract Flowers 

This painting has been sold to one of my happy collectors, but similar versions and sizes are available as commissions.

Beautiful images can inspire beautiful words such as this poem about Faith

THIS IS FAITH

 
To walk where there is no path
To breathe where there is no air
To see where there is no light --... Read More
This is Faith.
 
To cry out in the silence,
The silence of the night,
And hearing no echo believe
And believe again and again --
This is Faith.
 
To hold pebbles and see jewels
To raise sticks and see forests
To smile with weeping eyes --
This is Faith.
 
To say: "God, I believe" when others deny,
"I hear" when there is no answer,
"I see" though naught is seen --
This is Faith.
 
And the fierce love in the heart,
The savage love that cries
Hidden Thou art yet there!
Veil Thy face and mute Thy tongue
Yet I see and hear Thee, Love,
Beat me down to the bare earth,
Yet I rise and love Thee, Love!"
This is Faith.
 
Ruhiyyih
(Amatu'l-Baha Ruhiyyih Khanum)
Hand of the Cause of God, Baha'i Faith
