Symbols That Speak of New Times Rising...

In the quiet of creation...the painting begins to speak a story that wants to be told...prophecy exposing itself to humanity.   Often the painting tells me what it wants to be.  Symbols come forward, with a mind of their own...like a puzzle they are trying to tell me, and others who are drawn to it, that they have something to say.  

Have you ever wondered what the colors are trying to say? What the symbolic meaning of the animals means?  I just finished the painting below...and as I am choosing the symbols...sometimes even I am wondering what they mean...why did I choose the colors that I did...what is the painting trying to speak, what is its truth? 

As I finished the painting...I asked her "What's your story? Tell me what it is you want to say."
A personal reflection as I think about how the painting came...often I am thinking it will go one way...and then it comes out different and I work with it, an idea emerges...a golden deer...black birds...crescent moons...stems coming forth from her...flowers grow and expand...the light pouring forth. I'm shocked at the brilliance of the colors.  A symbolic unfolding begins...she begins to tell me what each element means...the gold, colors, animals the moons.
