A few pictures from the "Light In The Darkness" group show from a few weeks ago.

 

 Had a great time with friends at Eclectic Soul Studio today for the Art & Soul event. Met new poeple, had great conversations, and a lot of artwork found homes.

 

Some nonobjective work.

Inflamed. Watercolor and India ink.

Apparition. Watercolor and India ink.

“Anyone who claims to be good has yet to shake hands with her dark side. Across a hundred years I've met most of my parts, and I've lived a good deal in the shadows. I've reconciled the anger with the hope, the bitter with the bullshit, the yearning with the grief, the fake with the true. I have an unkempt soul. I am extraordinarily ordinary. But I have known love - great love. Oh, yes, I've known it. And that I will take with me into the night. I like best the parts of us that are contradictory and most human."

-Vera by Carol Edgarian

 A “slow drawing” in honor of an endearing little snake I ran into on a hike. An eastern yellow-bellied racer, I believe.
