Looking at her holds my heart a-jar.

c-love oil?! Oh sweet Jesus!!!!!

Ask and you shall receive, huh Margo?

:D

Marguaritte said...

Yes :D c-love oil, of course!

Michael said...

Dearest Shannon,

When you are done manifesting Mary, would you please ask her from me if she'd like to step out of the canvas and come to Aberdeen?

I would make her very, very comfortable here.

She can have her own room...

Deeply smitten,

Michael.

Shannon said...

Absolutely, Michael! I sure will ask her. So sweet... :)

Thank you Anon! Paint on it is...

Marguaritte said...

Wow, I'm really taken by her too...


Shannon, do you ever make giclee's of your paintings?

Shannon said...

For this piece, Yes. :)

I think Mary is already there...
astral passport, you know!
She'd probably prefer one of your out buildings like the carriage building, that way she could spill paint and throw pots and sculpt faces from clay and leave food out and watch the critters come and the call the cats. No ...no skip that last visual ,that's no good. She'll want to visit Sangoma and all the churches and graveyards. She'd want to see, feel and touch, Die Oog. And visit Andre and the prickly ones. She'll stand out in every rainstorm and get soaked to the marrow. The towns people will think she is crazy but harmless. Are you sure you want her to visit?

"...like an angel callin
like a glimmer of life
like a vision of light...
your hand
and that's more than enough
your glance
is like jumpin in the river of
Jordon, purify me baby..."
