Rocks...

7/9/2019

 
To create one’s own world takes courage.” Georgia O’Keeffe

Kanab Sandstone Cairn (study) 12X12 Oil on Canvas

​Why do I paint rocks?  Don’t think of them as rocks. They have personality just as family and friends do; rocks are people I know.  Some are bright, colorful and make me laugh.  Others are secretive, dark and foreboding, keeping all their secrets to themselves.  Some rocks are as smooth as a new baby’s skin while others have sharp edges and carry the scars of a million years.  Some rocks work together, forming teams, stacking together, leaning on each other, while others are loners. Like people, rocks fail, they crack, they slowly erode and they break under natures heavy hand.  But don’t ever under estimate a rock.  They have strength and the ability to endure people can only wish for.  We can learn a lot from rocks.
