I visited a lovely artist friend of mine today, Magnhild, and we discussed and worked on which works I should get mounted and framed and how to put it all together for the local exhibition in about 2 months time. (see the six below). I plan on using broad double mounts, black closest to the painting and then white.

I plan to display this at the Holidays exhibition after having it properly mounted and framed so if you are interested in purchase please email me and we'll take it from there.

Today is the Fourteenth day of the August challenge

Tribute To a Beautiful Earth
Celebrating and Conserving Our Planet with DailyPainters.com


Today's painting is inspired by the phrase "My cup runneth over" which is from the Bible, Psalms 23:5 and the meaning is: I have more than enough for my needs. Here is the context:
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Our planet's problem is partly that we keep making that cup bigger and bigger and have created so many non real needs to fuel an economic buying feast where we keep buying more and more and thus consume more and more and pollute more and more.

This video "The Story of Stuff" very well visualize this.

I am experimenting a bit these days with making the mounting and things like that be part of the expression. Here is one of the ideas I am playing with - using mounts in different ways.

My daughter's comment on seeing this painting was that she would like me to make a series using the topic "blind". Maybe I will if my muse will allow me. Keep visiting my blog or DPgallery and you will get to know.

Today I have spent most time washing and putting out poison to try to get those ants that keep eating on our holiday house. Hopefully there is nobody else eating besides the mice that I saw feces after and the ants that I saw running around. I will travel up there in a few days again and see whether the problem has improved.

Today's painting is another of my social commentary ones.

I was quite happy with this work and I must tell you that I showed the "conquerer" to my daughter without giving any title and she saw a battlefield with lots of figures and faces and parts of persons too. And the person could be a death angel or a battle commander or even the last one standing.

A friend of mine who is a poet said:
" my eyes first glance at the figure......then my eyes quickly scan scenery because i notice faces (especially in the bottom right hand quarter of the painting). for some reason i am really drawn towards that section. i get a strong vibe that the figure is very symbolic. it all seems very spiritual to me. i feel this painting represents braving fears and reaching goals by never losing site of your purpose. "


An artist friend said: "The conquerer is kind of lost, looks more conquered than a winner."

Things like these are what makes working in abstracts so fascinating. The only 3 persons that had seen it had seen so many different things. Imagine how many things a whole group of persons could see . . . . . . :-) As long as people see something, as long as my work starts some kind of reaction then I am happy. It does not have to be positive or what I believed only some kind of reaction. Non interest is the worst that can happen - someone hating the painting is better.
So please use the comments option beneath and write what you see and think when looking at this painting.
