Transition

Several years ago I worked on a painting called "The Invisible Thread" with approximate dimensions of 6 x 12 feet. The colorful abstract piece brought contentment but the display did not. It was not until a few months ago that I decided it should be cut vertically into 5 inch strips. I am contemplating the next step. Some ideas include weaving the strips together, hanging the strips in a new order,  and cutting the strips thinner. The idea of creating a work of art you once thought complete and rearranging it is exhausting yet rewarding. It is a great parallel to how one needs to move with the change in life in order to be a complete whole. I will have a photo up soon of the strips and see how the new interplay of color has changed.
