I was playing with what colors would represent which season, SPRING, SUMMER, AUTUMN, WINTER. I named this piece, "All Seasoned Madonna" as this woman and child walked through every season together. They are holding a flowering bud, a metaphor which asks what is the force that drives the growth. One day we are carried, another season passes and we are walking......
Angels with swords, how to read this image today? At a point in my life when I had to make a life changing decision I had a big dream. What I remember most from this dream is a figure holding a huge sword, cutting open doors and walking through rooms that contained the people I was having to detach from. So the image of the sword has become for me the sword of discernment, the sword of detaching. Where there seemed to be 'no way', a way opened. As angels have a title of "Guardian", I think it is important to invite them to go ahead of you and make a way.
