An exceptionally creative Mother & Daughter at a private class at Morning Glory Arts designed these amazing pieces of fusing glass artwork!!! It was truly inspiring to witness these artists at work!!! Thank you for bringing this beauty into the world ?
The Prevention and Healthy Living program at Maine/General Hospital in Augusta, Maine sponsored a Healing Glass Mandalas class on April 23rd, 2022. The participants created sacred,breath~giving images as reflections of transformation, love & hope. It was an intergenerational gathering of truly amazing people who created meditations in glass!!!
The Creative Painting class with the AMAZINGLY INNOVATIVE Maine Dartmouth Family Medicine Residents expressed the miracles of color & joyous camaraderie!!!! The small group paintings were created on 48"x60" canvases inspired by Jackson Pollock's splatter or drip painting techniques. Jackson Pollock was an Amercan painter who lived from 1912-1956 and made a significant contribution to the abstract expressionist movement with his drip technique.
The theme of the first group painting was flow. The second group painting has a celestial/spiritual theme. In the third group painting the residents allowed a theme to organically emerge, which has a springy, whimsical feel. The theme of the fourth group painting was light emerging from dark. I was truly moved and deeply honored to witness the unfoldment of their great spirits in color!!!!
The glorious individual, mixed media paintings follow on various surfaces including oval canvases, practice panels and specialized paper for alcohol paints, which were most kindly donated by Dr. Megan Barker. What a marvelous festival of color and creativity!!!
The awe~inspiring 11 Healing Glass Mandalas were created by the Maine Dartmouth Family Medicine Resident Doctors as part of their Wellness Program. The class included glass painting as well as fusing glass and the residents all made phenomenal pieces each with a uniquely wonderful voice!
