On the east slopes of the Rocky Mountains, spring is a fantasy.
Religion
One of a series of six paintings that fit together-- Each painting represents one of the great disciplines through which we frame and understand our world. The others in the series are Music, Drama, Math and Science, Philosophy, and Literature.
Aware
The title comes from a National Geographic story: "The Japanese have a word, Aware, for the feelings that arise from the beauty of an ephemeral thing." Seemed appropriate for this painting that celebrates the love my mom and dad had, and my sense that they are together now, although they have left us.
Our Lady of the Holy Mountain
In Isaiah, we're told we'll share in life on God's holy mountain, where "the wolf and the lamb will lie down." The possibility started with a simple but courageous "yes"--and so "a little child will lead them."
