The image arrived without any planning or forethought. I call it a “Talking Painting”.

From the very beginning as I started to work with the marks on the paper, which were already present on the canvas paper when I began versus a white blank canvas, it quickly took on a life of its own. As I engaged with the art materials the door presented itself in the sky. I allowed my imagination to recognize shapes and intuitively I went with the flow of the moment.

I felt very happy while creating Shalom. It captured me within minutes and the entire art work was painted and executed in a few days, with various characters creatures and animals in the image itself, I felt I was travelling deep into the painting as I was creating it.

See if you can find the woman, the angelic soccer players, Jonah and the whale with an eagle, various birds, bubbles and creatures, ghostly outlines of people, the Holy Spirit and the Hebrew letters that read Shalom or Peace. You may find more as this is a “ Talking Painting” which has much to speak about in a never ending fantastical story.
