    In my mouth, if there be sweetness,
    It has come from my Creator;
    If my hands are filled with beauty,
    All the beauty comes from God.
    ~ from The Kalevala (paraphrased)

    Whom have I in heaven but You?
    And earth has nothing I desire besides You.
    ~ Psalm 73:25

    Christ is risen from the dead,
    trampling on Death by death,
    And on those in the tombs,
    lavishing light.

    hard to appreciate a work when you have no idea about the artist..yeah you can look and say i do or don't like it but abstract or expressionism for me needs a bit of a back up story....
    The only one who can heal you is you.

    That's a cool painting! I love the flowing nature of it.
    There is no life I know
    To compare with pure imagination.

    escorial: The painting is a reference to the old lullaby Wynken, Blynken, and Nod. Here are the lyrics: http://www.poets.org/poetsorg/poem/w...lynken-and-nod

    Gumby: Thank you!
