oxalis looks up with hope.

Intentional quiet pervades the air, 
allowing the gaze to wander, to wander elsewhere. 
Beyond the horizon, a world unknown, 
where dreams and thoughts can freely roam. The mind finds solace in this serene retreat, as nature's whispers offer a soothing treat. 
Amidst the stillness, worries gently fade, 
in this sanctuary, where tranquility is made.
The lake, a mirror reflecting inner peace, 
a refuge where the soul finds sweet release. 
So let us embrace this tranquil shore, 
and let our spirits soar, and soar once more. 
For in the intentional quiet of this blessed place,
our hearts find serenity, and worries are erased.]]> 2023-06-07 20:59:51 UTC https://padlet.com/simon_ensor/w2b52wlp163ut7j9/wish/2617496606 https://padlet.com/simon_ensor/w2b52wlp163ut7j9/wish/2619815656 The roots of the trees, the roots of the mountains, the roots of the sky.

The image was based on the dualities I saw between the images of the covid19 virus and the water lilies on the canal where I live. Entangled geometry, replicating shapes and colours, mixed media composition including paper and bubble wrap. I wonder what other see now . . .

Anger started my art practice, making beauties like ‘Barcelona Baby’ in ink and graphite, made after a cool week of Catalonia culture and forcing myself home to the drudgery of everyday Dublin life. 

When we listen to anger, it is asking for compassion, then the healing can start 🥰
