The Book of Hope- Page 6

[avad]

Recently finished a new page in the Book of Hope Series: Page 6- 'Creating Tomorrows'. It will be shown at the gallery in East Hampton this weekend.see website for details.
Prayers hammered in nail-code....for strength,growth, for friends, family, world, etc. How I miss the ritual whenever I stop for too long. After my next show I think I must undertake another large prayers piece. To be called (I think) 'Festival of Devotion' and done in the colors I associate with India and puja.
24" x 24" nails, enamel, resin on wood.Detail shots:

You are indeed a true artist,this work has all the qualities of ancient text that you write about in your statement on the work.The detail pictures are so explicit on how the work has been made. They prove to the viewer, what we think we see and read is not always what we see and read. Beautiful, thank you for this visual and intellectual feast.
