New Header

The blog changed, if you can't already tell :).

I thought I'd tell you what the painting is in my new header.

EDIT: The name of the painting is "All That Is Seen and Unseen" (if you can tell me where the title comes from you get ...a cookie LOL Your clue is: I will be shocked if Amber doesn't know the answer ;) )

The painting represents the paradox of Faith. Faith is suppose to light your way through life but often blinds you to the rest of the world and other religions. The background is an overlapping of many different religious symbols. She is searching for her way, but is having trouble seeing through her faith. You have to caste off the blindfold to see the truth.

I felt this piece is very appropriate for the the blog. And I do love it so :).

For you artsy people its : MDF board mounted at 52" by 18" acrylic airbrush with pastels and watercolor pencils over a charcoal underdrawing. An absurd amount of hours, definitely my fav of the series (there is also hope, truth, and love.)
