Facing Darkness
Abstract Art by Omashte
Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.
~Desmond Tutu
Facing darkness is often times as difficult as facing light is for me. I have woven both of these ideas into this picture and I invite you to look closely at their stories. The darkness is full of things that light is able to touch and the light appreciates the depth brought through. If there were only light in the world and that was all we saw, then life would be indecipherable. For me I can only imagine how bored I would be if I could only create with light colors. Lost would be the depth of and shades of so many other dimensions and textures. I am scared by the ideas of what I can't see and often uninspired by what I can visualize. My answer is to look boldly into the depth of all. Not just one idea or another but read the entire story. What does life consist of and experience all of it.
What do you see in this abstract work?
I am creating unique blends of macro photography and digital illustration. Working from my photographs of colored glass, I create multi-layered explorations of texture and form. Combining simple, hand-drawn shapes with highly processed, complex backgrounds, resulting in joyous compositions of color and light. I work primarily on my computer and my images are available as prints in a variety of mediums. Acrylic prints are my favorite and I invite you to visit the Idaho First Bank in downtown Boise Idaho to see samples of my latest work.
I intend positive energy and healing vibrations into every artwork, illustration, and design I create. Abstract, unique and spiritual images are my favorite and I use color, shape and texture to express peace and beauty throughout the process. Visualizing dimensions that exist purely in light, where beauty is accepted wholeheartedly as a matter of fact and bliss is second nature.
Art is life to me and I live to find light and beauty every day. Reveling in the vibrations of it and the sound that it makes to my soul. No matter what I am feeling in a moment I can find another dimension of calm and peace in vibrant shades of imagination. Then the challenge is bringing the essence of what is found there, back here, through my art. A place made purely of light that speaks a language of color. My mission is to bring illumination, transformation, and joy into interior decorations and designs and change the world one space at a time.
