A Reason For Rain

This piece was personally gratifying to create. The pour simply happened, and then the flow of pigments and ink spoke, and water rushed down. Rain, for me, is often an unwanted guest, but the meandering of the rocky brook provided another take on rain. Rain creates and compels, and it finds a way. I especially enjoyed the small rivulet that emerges from the stand of trees at the lower left suggesting a special and secret spot that quenches thirst and invites meditation. The scene also raises awareness that the droplets and rivulets do find a bigger home in the creek below. There is direction and then rest. The departing heron is, in this case, a watcher who has been filled (with fish?). The abstracted ink and indigo that hosts the scene makes me thankful for clarity and emergent meaning from the Designer…. if I can just patiently wait on Him.
