Turning the Corner with Your Eyes Closed

PictureTaste and See - Red Wine and Oranges, oil, 8 x 8, $100
Have you ever turned the corner with your eyes closed? Sure, I do all the time.... when I'm in my house and I know the floor plan like the back of my hand... I can turn the corner from room to hallway with my eyes closed or when it's  pitch dark in the middle of the night... but what about when you're in unfamiliar places?

That's when faith kicks in. I guess under the right circumstances perhaps one would be willing to turn the corner with they're eyes closed. Maybe with someone you trust guiding your steps. Watching out for you... steers you in a different direction.

That's exactly how I'm feeling right now. This is the second painting I've done using the fracturing technique and I have to say... this doesn't look like my style at ALL!

 but I'm kinda lik'n it!  Am I turning a corner? ... stepping out in faith?...  we will just have to see ....

" I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you." Psalm 32:8

You are right - it doesn't look like your regular work.
The whole point is to try something different and as you do it ask yourself what you like or don't like and what you feel works. Just like our faith works for both of us. I couldn't get through life without it but we probably have have some differences in how we approach our own personal relationship with Jesus.

You are such a good artist with your foundation skills firmly established you will be able to develop a part of the fracturing into your own unique voice. I admire you for trying and getting out of your comfort zone.

Like I said in my last comment, I'm really grateful for the DPW website for all that they do to help artists like myself.

I marvel at how amazing our God is... especially when he uses the internet to connect his children together. They can be hundreds of miles away from each other yet the Holy Spirit knows....
Confidence in Him brings out the courage in me!
Peace and blessings to you Julie!
