Connection, Our own Butterfly Effect..

Imp the Pony Makes The Stars The 'butterfly effect' reminds us that we are all connected, that the gently flapping wings of a butterfly in brazil can result in a tornado.. (or willy~willy) .. in ..well.. Australia! So here is a new little painting from me, a tiny artistic mirror reflecting some of my thoughts out into the Universe and back again to me. My long distance friend Elaine who runs a wonderful Animal Rescue Farm 'Hector's Gate' in the UK gave me permission to use a photo of her cheeky little pinto 'Imp' in my art.. I envisioned him having his own Butterfly Effect on the Universe! Splashing the crystal waters in the Cave at the edge of the World, sparkling droplets spiralling up into the skies, hanging there suspended as silver, twinkling stars. From my vantage point Down~under, I can hear the 'plink' and feel the silvery Shimmer!

Capturing a Moment..

I often begin a miniature whimsical painting with just a feeling. Connectedness to all 'things' is the undertow that powers my art so here it is again. Then I open my heart for a subject, and here is little Bonnie again, this time suddenly cavorting with dragonflies at the temple of the rare and wonderful Night Waratah on the Island of Pink and Gold Hearts! Makes sense? Not to a hard~nosed realist perhaps, ("How did Bonnie sail the boat? No motor, no sails".. "she has no hands anyway," and "she's 'just a dog'" "Waratahs grow in East Coast Australian scrubby Bushland not alone on an Island!!") .. but to the artistic heart, the image and the feeling floats gently from me to you across the ethers, before hopefully finding a welcome 'soft place to fall'.
