This is my latest painting.
"A Spiritual Awakening"
It is a work in progress, just like me.
It is for my own private collection.
Something for me to look at every morning when I wake up to remind me that my life is a constant struggle. I am like the sailboat depicted floundering in the waves. Searching in uncharted territories. There are angels everywhere to protect me from myself and the demons that are a constant reminder.....
But, there are bluer skies that await this tumultuous situation.
The sailboat will find calmer seas.
Sunshine awaits this wayward crew.
It takes many to weather this storm. But with God's love He will wrap his arms around all of us and protect us.

I love this painting. However - when I first saw it - I didn't notice the sailboat - I noticed the cross (or mast). An even better illustration that God is always with us - He guides us through every storm. I love your paintings!
ReplyDeletethis is gorgeous! Definitely keep this one. Such a great picture and great source of encouragement.
ReplyDeletethis speaks to me, kendall. i get it. and the cross is magnificent. i could gaze at this for a long time and get lost in it.
ReplyDeletebravo!

This is a beautiful painting. I'm not sure how I found your blog, but I've read it for awhile, and this is the first time I've commented. I, too, first noticed the cross on the sailboat. After reading your post that accompanied your painting, it reminded me of song "The Anchor Holds". It's an old one but a good one.
ReplyDeleteLove this painting!!! Would love to have something similar.
ReplyDeleteHi Sylvia! Thank you so much! I could probably work on something similar for you however not sure it would come out the same to be honest. This painting came from way down deep inside of me and is a total expression of me. I could try though if you are really interested! Just let me know kbdr@aol.com
DeleteThanks!!!
Kendall, just had your blog forwarded to me by a friend of ours who also paints. This is total expression, a very sensitive way to put on canvas what your soul is saying!!! Wish you, Lynn and your family the very best. Would love to see you!!
ReplyDeletehey Nelson! What a wonderful surprise. I am assuming this is the only Nelson I know from Collierville? Hope you and Betsy are doing great! We are all wonderful here with lots to catch up on. I am actually a part of the St Georges Independant School Art Show starting next month so I will be in Colliervillle for it. I would love to see you guys!!!
