Solitude

This sculpture has a few stories behind it.
When my daughter was young, she had a "thing" about wolves. She loves all animals, and the wolf was one of her favorites. I guess it's no surprise that now she is on her own she has a dog. When I came across a photo of a wolf, I automatically thought of her and I had a "daddy" moment. Also, I love the colors of fall because I grew up very near the Timpanogos Mountains in Utah where the fall colors are plentiful, so the colors in this painting give me a warm and welcoming feeling. The forest and fall colors bring it all back to me. Another thing that this sculpture reminds me of is when I retreat to be alone with my thoughts under no pressure. It's those peaceful times I can think, meditate, and look over my life to see what is working and what is not. Then I can plan accordingly. |
