Thin Places
Thin places are places that are sacred to the person, a place that feels connected to God or heaven. I am working on a series of thin places that are special to me. I love the beach and wetlands, or places where the water is meeting the land, especially where reeds or grasses emerge from the water. I am following Georgia O'Keefe's exercise in reducing elements down to the minimum, using little color. The attached painting is one of a series of "Changing Tides" which uses little color, some texture to give a feeling of movement of tides - which is symbolic of passing of time.
