Sit Awhile with Me

Take a little time to stop, sit quietly on your own or with someone, a person in whose company you can be still. Then just listen, hear the noises of a home, a clock ticking, movement in another room. Become conscious of the feel of the materials around you, velvet cushions, linen upholstery a wool rug. Watch the play of light on different surfaces, polished wood, shining metal and sparkling crystal. See dust motes caught in a shaft of sunlight then rejoice in that moment. That is what this painting is all about, one moment.
