Sought Through Prayer and Meditation

Some truths are like lights so bright that they blind. These lights overwhelm the mind and senses and leave one confounded. So it becomes necessary to have a different process when examining these truths. A flashlight can help us to see in the dark but is useless in the light of the noon day sun. So we must throw away our old way of thinking and find a new one. A new process that employs an intuition, a faith, as it were, a guide to realms where the light is so bright that the finite falters. An interpreter that can maneuver through previously untravelled territory. This interpreter is found in quiet solitude, prayer and meditation. It's language is silence and silence is the language of God. It is in silence that we may hear the still, small voice that Is. (visionary imagist"Joey")

I hadn't noticed this before and I love it. It really captures a sense of timelessness, infinite wisdom and eternity. I especially like the skull as a reminder that the physical world is passing, fleeting and only one small part of life

Artist Reply: John: Thank you for the really insightful comment. You are absolutely right on about the transitory aspect of life. that bis why the skull as used. Thanks again.

Very beautiful and calm piece! I love the colors and the composition. The lack of detail to the face adds to the surroundings and always you to take it in easily. Wonderful Job!!!
