Mariam Muradian
Yes, Helene….someday!!!! The longing is so intense…..I understand that feeling so well!!!!
This painting holds a magical restlessness…..the jumping off place, toes hanging over the edge, and only there will wings have their true meaning and purpose, right? Such a grounded blueness, but she has a plan!
Painting true to your feelings is what you do best, Helene. Thanks for the ride!
Blessings,
Mariam

Truly amazing, mystical art. Shamanic, with the power to heal!
Robert Dye
Reminds me of Frida… You don’t have to have wings to fly, let your heart and your mind soar. Hope you are doing alright, now. The art speaks for itself…

I searched through your images and found one that spoke to me the most. I think this is an incredible image. So full of color and life and imagination that it brings me to a feeling of rejoice to know that there are other out there like me that have had bad things happen in their life or circumstances happen beyond their control which prevents them from reaching the sky. This however gives me a feeling of unending hope. I feel completeness in it. I think that it totally captures the journey of many artists….I never even knew, I had always had an interest in the arts. Then one day it hit me, Bam you are sad because you are not doing the things u want to do. I finally realized that there was more to my life. A yearning in my soul to break free and really go for my dreams. It is like you know that you belong somewhere else. You are a different breed than most and you see the world in unique and creative ways. Then it was like I had a realization inside that this is what I wanted to do and have been doing it for therapy. Nothing feels more free and I have never felt so alive in my life than when i am creating. The bird woman looks extremely sad. She wants to fly yet she has not yet grown her wings but she looks as if she is getting there from the view of her face. Looks like she is undergoing a wonderful transformation. May we all get our wings and fly!

People don’t understand that if you are an artist, it is not a hobby. It is who we are. Especially if you are from the South.

oh yes ….. thnx

Rochele Royster
Hey Helene! Your page is sooo fantastic and you have sooo much work I haven’t been able to view it at one setting. I constantly revisit your page and find things that I love. This painting is one. It is absolutely fantastic. You were very successful in transfering that feeling of fear but optimism into an image. I love the way you use your personal experiences to help create art and I’m sure facilitate change and wonder in your life.

thx so much rochele~

Crazy Times call for Crazy Solutions, great work, I have also been pinned down once, it’s insane, but I got quite imaginative too, I had no control over much at the time, once I accepted it, then I could think. You are very funny Helene xx enjoying your work.
