The Safest Place

The Safest Place


In every forest, everywhere, life continues...

Like the trees that fall soundlessly when no one's around, the safest place is often right under your feet -- you don't know about it if you're not there.

Life is buried there lovingly by the hands of a Mother. She goes unannounced with her duties; quietly digging the soft, fertile earth so that the one acorn that was not stolen by the squirrels could find it's way into the ground.

I really loved your depiction of the painting. Mother, child, earth. The epitome of strength and security. I love the free flowing lines.

Ordering a print in two days.

Your words are as beautiful as your art.

I see you as both the painter and the painted: auf Deutsch, "Die ewige Weibliche geht uns hinan." A girl/woman at the center of the creation of Herself and of everything else ...
