Crossing Your Red Sea by Linda Pasca
Oil Painting
10x10
 
Painting, as a daily practice, provides a way for me to tap into an inner resource that informs how I observe, internalize and connect to all of life. I play with color and move about my studio space much like a dance - meditating, studying, imagining, exploring and creating. There are usually a few projects happening simultaneously, which allows me to be fluid and spontaneous.
 
Inspiration is drawn from the natural world, animal spirits, women’s empowerment, music, the written word, and dream imagery. Common throughout my work is a symbolic red thread or image that serves as a reminder to focus inward and to keep spirituality at the center of one’s thoughts. The resulting work has an ethereal quality infused with emotion, symbolism and spiritual value.
