Reassurance

Finger to lips as if to “shush” the viewer of all the chatter within. This is not an arrogant, commanding hush, implying, “Stop, you’re bothering me”. Rather a calm, loving sh-- that soothes the soul. Saying, “Let it go, I’m in control”.

I'm working on his hand--not long and this painting will be completed. I'll post it soon. Lorna

God Bless America: Florida Air Patrol

Happy "Independence Day"...proud to say: "one Nation under God, with liberty & justice for all". No other place like it on earth...America, "home of the free & the brave"!

I really like this mixed-media patriotic piece I created. Often I would visit a friend in Palm Island, FL and pelicans were everywhere--flocks always 'cruising': high in the sky or skimming the Gulf water. People would refer to them as The Palm Island Air Patrol. It was 2001, the year of 9-11 when the inspiration came for this patriotic drawing/wc..."God Bless America".

++Small prints are available on my web site: Revelation Art just contact me here or through my web site www.revelation.org.

Blessings on America,

Lorna

My reflection: I'm proud to be an American. A Country founded on Judeo-Christian principles, "actively" preserve these roots...pray for America!

Don't be afraid, we are "One Nation Under God"!

Encouragement from Beth Moore: "We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us, but frankly we won't if we're too afraid to try". Quote from her book: "Believing God".
