Description
This original gouache on 140 lb. rough paper is a still life that I painted during a difficult time and stuck away. In this present moment, the image reminds me of a friend who once shared the following: “There was a time I thought my glass was half empty, a time when I thought my glass was half full but now, at this moment, I am grateful for the very glass itself!” And, so am I.
Gratitude also extends to the Living water which fills my glass to nourish my spirit, mind and body. I have since become aware of and embraced Masaru Emoto’s dedicated 15+ year, socio-scientific-high resolution, photo-microscopic study’s definition of WATER as living: “Love and Gratitude”. I venerate the Beauty of water’s crystalline Life sourcing properties with the elegance of man made beauty found in this vintage, footed paper thin crystal glass.

Excellent work, Laurel! Glass can be tricky for us traditional artists, but you nailed the texture, highlights, etc. Naturally, since you're a pro after all! Love the look of the fabric as well- hard glass, soft fabric.... see what I mean? A pro! Voting for you in the THE GLASS CEILING-HAND ARTISTS ONLY contest! L/F

Laurie, thank you so much for your intimate share. I so appreciate it! It has taken me many years to arrive at the place of openness from which I now share. I no longer see the disctinction between where my art begins /ends and Spirituality begins/ends...there is a Flow and I openly share both...thank you for reflecting it back to me. I suspect it is because I see the same patterns in your work? I am smiling in return!
