" Remembering the Beauty of What Was", mixed media on BFK Rives paper, Sherry Ashby Cunningham
New Journeys start....but the past is not erased. Try as you may to forget, it is a part of you. Embrace. So much beauty...I saw in you. Finding that same beauty in myself is part of the new journey. As I see beauty in me I see beauty in you. Forgiveness, letting go of anger and bitterness. You will forever be part of my soul, my life...no one can take that away. We are connected, why not be connected in love? The dark and the light is equal in it's importance. No matter the outcome....love will always lie in the foundation of  how we were born and it is how we will die...united in love in loves embrace.

Wild in the Woods








"Wild in the Woods" mixed media on paper


 
 
 
Wild in the tangled woods, the witch offers the lost child an apple. " Is she a good witch or a bad witch ?" asks the child. " We don't know yet my dear." answered the mother to her beloved. "Is the apple poisoned Mama?" asked the child. "I don't know my beloved" answered the mother again. "It is the fruit of knowledge my dear....and sometimes the truth is painful....it is neither good nor bad."

Painting to "see"

not yet titled, acrylic on board

Where does your soul go...your heart, your mind?...it wanders sometimes in the dark. And that is ok. Without the dark we can not have the light...balance they say...but it swings........

Spirits in the Wood

Some times ....we all feel a little naked....a little exposed.
We bare our souls to another...and the journey in life happens....it is not easy to be human.

"Eastport House", mixed media on BFK Rives paper
I have been playing with houses for about a year.

Straight lines sometimes scare me...but come to find quite often the lines are not as straight as you think they are gonna be....kinda like the path we are all on...it rarely is on the straight and narrow and a direct path....



If the Foundation is weak...the entire structure will be too.
