Affirmations #4: Flow
Affirmations #4: Flow
8” x 8”
Original acrylic, mixed media painting (on mixed media paper) in a 12” x 12” mat with a protective sleeve.
Affirmations #4: Flow was the fourth completed painting of the series of Affirmations. There was a comfortable flow of brushstrokes, scrapes, pencil lines and marks. The angles seemed to naturally occur and the two open circles came together as if they had already established a relationship with one another.
The word, Flow, was written within the painting, early on, along with a Flow related quote. The chosen word/quote must have had an unintended effect on the creative process. I experienced a wonderful creative flow in developing this it. You can see how the words/quotes have disappeared under the paint. Here’s what’s written beneath the paint…
The quote: “Water is the softest of all things, yet it is the most powerful. The ocean patiently allows all things to flow into it. It is always flexible. The Tao is not about grasping, but allowing, like water.” ― Wayne Dyer
Affirmations #4: Flow is signed and dated on the back.
