The past couple of weeks have been hard. I mentioned some of it in my last post. The loss of a dear friend has really taken its toll. It's strange how we can think we are struggling and suffering in life and then a true tragedy comes along and it puts everything into perspective. The struggles don't seem so bad and all the worries become silly and petty. The true tragedy tears at us and jolts us back into reality. Then real pain grips us and we are overwhelmed.
Yet always, God is there, offering his comfort.
I did this watercolor as I grieved for my friend and his wife. I am so glad we have the gift of creativity to express our deepest emotions. In this expression there is comfort and healing.
Thank you for stopping to see my art and read my words. I would love to know how you, dear reader, use your creativity, art, writing, music, etc. to work out the hard primal emotions. Please leave a comment. You might help someone find an outlet for their pain.
