Roping the moon

'Dreams' copyright 2010 Lacy Martin

Let me be as free as this light
Like the moon hangs solo in the night
Let me feel the energy as I capture this moment
Put it in a mason jar and forever own it.

This piece has a place within me so deep I cannot part from it anytime soon. I remember the moment i was inspired to paint this. I was at a farm and I looked up toward the night sky and the moon was so big and so bright I remember thinking I wish I could rope that moon and put it in a mason jar. I remembered how I would put lightening bugs in a jar in my room and just watch them at night. The moon grounds me, makes me feel comfort and inspires me to let my own light shine.

Spirals of Life

'Spirals of life'  copyright 2010 Lacy Martin

Spirals of life
How they dwindle through
The ripples of spirit
traveling in you.
Capturing the essence
of death and rebirth
Awed by the beauty
of life on earth.

Calm in the storm

"Calm in the storm" copyright 2010

I painted this a couple nights ago...I havent really been myself lately but Im working on becoming a better me. Sometimes it's better to not resist anything that comes to you whether it be emotionally, physically, mentally, whatever...the less you resist and ignore...the easier and faster you get through.
Im working hard on being the calm in the storm.
