About The Artwork

In thermal updrafts soaring on eloquence and elaborate exploits. Life rendered me broken. I thought I was free - until severed wings saved me. I knew You were there. Swallows returned to see if I would venture out. They swooped and dashed back and forth. I flaunted my freedom for a love that was lost. You were there. I fell helplessly, grabbing at the shafts of light that beckoned. Grasping for One who could save me. A splinter piercing my hand. You understand. Hold tight, these shadows will pass. Dank surrounds me. There You find me. My bed in the abyss. Let me die here. You wait for me. Fear surrounds me, darkness overshadows me. Here in the umbra, I feel you. Under the silhouette of nightmares set free - cold as ice I lay. Void of identity, emptied of self. You are there.  Transcendent Truth and Light have penetrated me. Curled around a glimmer of hope, my heart clasps tightly to the peace. You watch over me. This abyss. I am not alone. Silence, like the leaves of my past, will not encase me. No oracle will veil Your radiance. Height and depth echo Your existence. My fall will not cast my rise. I will find my voice and this winter’s nest will release me.  My aestivation will bloom again under the warmth of Your gaze. I will soar again, find me where You are. Ps139 Written by Kim Brown The Swallows The symbolism of a swallow bird exists for a long time ago. In the past, it was believed that a swallow symbolizes God. The swallow is usually associated with love, loyalty, and peace. The Fox The fox is viewed as a guide down a destined path. In this painting, I have used it as a symbol for the Spirit of God. These beautiful animals are found all over the world and have been part of ancient folklore and traditions for thousands of years. The fox reveals itself during times of great and unpredictable change and symbolizes mental responsiveness. He implores you to break free from your comfort zone and remain flexible, to allow you to see through deception and discern right from wrong. The fox (Holy Spirit) will gently warn you when trouble is nearby. Foxes represent quiet observation, listening, patience, and calculated risk-taking.  The most stand-out feature of a fox is its bright fur coat and bushy tail. The fur is its most important protective tool, offering camouflage as well as giving comfort when it is cold and rainy. This represents God's protection in all circumstances. Foxes are visionaries, knowing the outcome that they want to achieve first, then carefully observing, waiting, and taking small steps to finally get to their end goal.  The fox is here to encourage you to dream big, again.

I am an artist who believes in conveying emotions through bold and vibrant colours, using gestural motions and large brushes to engage with the canvas physically. My spontaneous and intuitive approach involves multiple layers, impasto techniques, and experimentation with various materials like charcoal and inks. Influenced by artists such as Karel Appel, Willem de Kooning, and Mark Rothko, my work embraces improvisation, emphasising the therapeutic power of art to convey joy and vitality. The core principles of expressiveness, spontaneity, and vibrant colours remain constant throughout my evolving techniques. My abstract creations are windows into a world of hope, joy, and life, serving as beacons of optimism in a world often filled with negativity and despair. They invite viewers to embrace life, find happiness in every moment, and smile in the face of adversity. Constant experimentation and evolution define my approach, and like Karel Appel, I believe in the therapeutic power of art, aiming to convey joy and vitality through my work.
