Week 4- "gone" Susan Black

For my dog Jake

 

Another favourite quotation this one from May Sarton

"there are griefs so loud they could bring down the sky

and there are griefs so still no one knows how deep they lie"

 

OH my goodness - this painting (tiny bit of collage) nearly killed me and I'm not sure why I needed to be "so" complicated but I guess I was wanting to do one of those complicated, lots going on pieces. Originally I was planning to use a very sombre monotone muted palette, mostly greys and black - just can't seem to leave the colour alone. Phew !! happy to be fini and aiming to try simplicity Week 5. ;-) Wonder if the tears were a mistake ??? Wonder if it's all just a little contrived feeling, although I have really loved allowing myself to play & experiment, something I don't often let myself do ... I've come to realize through this fantastic course. Love any and all thoughts, feedback etc...such a great class. Merci !!
