SACRIFICIUM

2011-03-11T15:36:00.000Z

Painted whilst in much pain so this is conveyed in depths of understanding, throughout its layers.Over 10 hours without stopping determined to complete this whilst i could. It is painted with acrylics dry pastels waters and gels and has been sprayed between layers and top fixed.Emotion flows into and from this piece I hope you all enjoy studying it.'Sacrificium ' was a word used in Jesus' time and is most apt for this i feel.

' sulking ' currently exhibited at the SWINDON ARTISTS FORUM

A shell that wraps this inner soul that yearns it's freedom to be whole

2010-01-30T00:50:00.001Z

a shell that wraps this inner soul that yearns its freedom to be whole

tis with love
that holds me now and more
and everyday i must endure
a pain
you do not know
and i must not tell
and all within
a burning hell
a fire that ate
destroyed my being
and all you see
a vision….
fleeing
a shell that wraps
this inner soul
that yearns its freedom
to be whole
that begs a day
of torture none
a night of sleep
a day well done
all lessons learned
and futures born
and loves are lost
and hearts are torn
a message to my unborn kin
let love and peace
over war to win

Part of my big cat collection on exhibition now.
this is mainly in soft pastels with added water colour pencil

all bones of strength and backbone gnawed

2009-11-26T12:01:00.002Z

words spill
and fill
my mind
but not kind
hurt
scar and marr
direction and
cause
conflict
and wars
emotions
warm
yet burns
twists
and turns
seek stars and fall
and sink
depths so deep
black is white
and colours reaped
flood minds
that wheep
sounds trapped
in silence
sleep
all senses
ignited
ignored
all hopes
of future flawed
all bones of strength
and backbone
gnawed

i will never be whole

2009-11-21T23:51:00.000Z

he bought me roses
thankful was i
but a cure for the mind ?
how broken i am
yet he is kind
silken petals to heal my soul
superficial remedies
that have no control
i will never be whole
pity...... an emotion dealt to the weak
sleep a luxury i often seek
freedom the ultimate goal

2009-11-21T23:48:00.000Z

I AM WHO I AM...YET ....I SHOULD BE MORE

2009-11-21T23:12:00.001Z

shadows of the night
sway cloaks of velvet black
amongst the fires of passion
held back
by truth of wants and more
silence
a veil of hardened needs
desire
beckons
yearns
past and above all that is
and should be
grasps
of a lost reality
clenched fists
of a harsh wake up call
flight on wings of peace
grace does pass me by
tears of an eye
that blinks
and knows not why
the day is ...today
what you see is what you get
what you feel does not belong
what you hear ...is in your world
are you mute...
because you are not heard?

you could never love again
your heart is swept off to a new domain
Just as you think
you have everything in control
your mind is not whole
Blinded by confusion
delirious delusion

I STARE INTO SPACE........A CREATIVE PLACE

2006-01-16T00:59:00.000Z

As the shadows fall and light moves with slow time and movement

Watch with eager eyes,

Dare I miss something of importance?

We move at such great speeds that we do not see real progress

Digital technical electrical rulers of our being demand our attention

As individuals we are insignificant dots of a non pictured jigsaw

Irony that we do not fit together on earth linking the pieces

In order to survive as a race to be proud of .

Greed being mans downfall,

How sorry we are in the aftermath .

Unnecessary wars

Causing death famine homelessness pain and tears

We are the teachers and pupils of a world consumed with ignorance

Centuries passed has taught us nothing about compassion

How sad it is that one man has so much and another has nothing

And how it touches me so when I see a starving child smile

How it hurts me that a rich well fed child could moan for more

I am grateful for my existence, but not sure of my purpose

It burns within me as I breathe that I cannot change wrong to right

My mind is plagued by it so I do not sleep at night

The years have done me no favours to prove my worth

Time is stolen

Not to be relived

Now is the era of voice to be heard

Words of change must fill the air

THANKYOU SUCH KIND WORDS

2006-01-16T00:43:00.000Z

Mandys insight is so based on her genuine experience

that it makes comparison with any trends irrelevant.

Having the ability to help people through her words

and art has become her way of life.Her words flow directly

rather than couched in metaphor .They require that the reader

opens their heart to understanding them, rather than

analyze them like stylish and artful conundrums.

Behind her style of work there's a keen objective criticism,

with a self-realised perfectionism. Her art is so diverse

it displays the many sides to her walk of life.

Mandys will to succeed is an inspiration to us all.

I feel honoured to be a part of her existence.

MIKE STUART Ba.

a world of words

2005-08-21T18:39:00.000Z

There are a world of words within me
Bursting to be set free
There has to be some order
To understanding me
I need to be thinking clearly
To type the words within my heart
But my mind is bogged down with confusion
Unravelling is merely the start
