Without a Doubt....a painting and a poem....


“Still, what I want in my life

is to be willing
to be dazzled—
to cast aside the weight of facts

and maybe even
to float a little
above this difficult world.
I want to believe I am looking

into the white fire of a great mystery.
I want to believe that the imperfections are nothing—
that the light is everything—that it is more than the sum
of each flawed blossom rising and falling. And I do.”


― Mary Oliver, House of Light



This painting, "Without a Doubt" is painted from life in oil on an 11x14" linen panel.

Wishing you well and moments of beauty during this unusual time.

I would love to receive your ideas for future poems to be posted with my art. You can include them in the comment section below or by contacting me through my Website, which is a good way to see my other paintings! ;)
