easel work

i have walked through my moms' t-shirts,
drying in her kitchen entryway


to begin painting flowers on her cabinets


+ cleared off the clutter that was above + below.
(next, i will bring blues into those blooms)
~
walking into each others lives, through all that it is,
is not always easy work, but it is the work of this easel,
+ of my very life.

listening to you


 this lovely artist is
magaly perez



i'm an artist who loves to smudge her fingers in paint and make beautiful works of art on paper. and love to share all this beauty to the world. painting is intimate for me, the solitude of space, my paper, my acrylics and brushes. a connection where thoughts and feelings are making beautiful music together . sometimes they spill loudly across the page other times is like listening to blues lavishly rattling the motions in my soul. my heart, my mind are at a flow. the rhythm feels right and once i'm feeling the groove everything i need in that given moment is in place. and i know the story--the image has begun and i'm having fun.


if you would like your art/photography referencing listening here, please email me with 1-2 attachments, your links + short bio to rachelawes@gmail.com
