Hope


This is a small 6x6 canvas panel that I am donating to Art Now For Autism.


This piece has taken so much out of me today I feel like I am going to literally collapse.

The drips on this piece represent the tears of a parent, who have just had their child diagnosed. and Hope, because there truly is always hope. I can testify to that one!

Layers of Acrylic paints, collage, image transfers and charcoal pencil.

Kristy, it's stunning! I can imagine how emotionally drained you are.... you've left a lot of "you" in that canvas. Bravo! =)
