'Unbound', 16"x20", Oil on Canvas, Contemporary Realism Still Life Oil Paintings by Paula Peacock


'Unbound'
by Paula Peacock
16" x 20"
Oil on Canvas
A breath of fresh air! After almost 3 years of my life being consumed and controlled by grief because of the loss of my son, I now have moments of feeling like Paula again. I’m still grieving and realize I always will. What we were is gone. What will be is yet to come. But, we will be.

The sky is a bit brighter as the sun rises, symbolic of a new day, with the heavyweight of darkness being pushed aside. A beautiful blue butterfly releases the restraints of grief and anger, allowing me the ability to breathe again and to look forward to what the day may bring.

Live each day as though it’s all we have and remember to tell your children you love them no matter their age. They will never outgrow hearing it and we should never tire of saying it.

So, I decided to save Pandora the humiliation and let her take a rest from this rendition by painting only the 'box'. All the other elements fell into place after I found the perfect vessel. The apple is representative of Eve, another woman blamed for the woes of the world. But, that will be another story in another painting. Here's a bit of what I call 'useless information that stuck in my brain for no apparent reason'. It really was NOT a box but a bowl. I guess t

               The Awakening by Paula Peacock 24" x 30" Oil on Canvas Rebirth, spiritual awakening. In a sea of the unknown, of what lays beyond, and of what lays beneath a woman is reborn, emerging from the lotus flower to a deeper understanding of spirit, of unconditional love, to experience a deep connection with All That Is. She has released the fear of death and stands her truth. She knows the meaning and purpose of her life, understands the suffering of humanity, she has an awareness, the ability to stay balanced and centered amid the storms of life. She is Love, Gratitude, Light, Compassion, Healer, Teacher, and sees the Divine in every single one of us. The Past does not exist. Tear catchers have been set asea. She has awakened and shares her Inner Freedom with those who are waiting, wanting, anticipating the re-birth of their Awareness, their Truth, their Inner Freedom.
