Passages – Kathleen Slavin

Hut Above Sahara was inspired by a tour in Morocco, a dive into ancient places. This view was experienced following an off-road drive up a rugged hill that brought us to the remains of an old shelter. Signs of humans having been on this hill were evident including graffiti, abandoned shoes, a cup, remnants of metal, stories left behind.

Passages – Celeste Dumonceaux Delahey

The country road is a passage, leading from one place to another without hurry. It carries travellers past open spaces and quiet turns, it leads farmers to their fields, it is the path from one neighbour to another, it’s the way to Grandma’s house, the road to town …

Passages – Betty Gibbon

Day into night; childhood into adulthood; joy onto sorrow and back again. Every moment is a temporary gift through the passages of life.

Passages – Jean Dudley

I use this idea often when I think about time – how illusive it is, how impossible it is to hang onto. Time also changes everything: we get older, the seasons come and go, people who are important to us leave us. It also brings great hope, constant change, both predictable and unpredictable.

Passages – Jill Scott

Our lives are comprised of a series of passage’s. It begins with the passage of you into this world via childbirth and ends with the passage of you in death. According to the dictionary, passage means the movement from one place to another. Or a narrow walkway.

Passages – Wendy McLeod

With the passage of time, her life was less about what is ahead, and became even more about love given and received.

The Inside Story – Anne Simmie

“Every picture tells a story don’t it”? Rod Stewart said it all. Every artist, when putting brush to canvas, is investing themself. Revealing an aspect of their inner life and personal experience. Asking the viewer to take part – or, one might say – to come inside.

The Inside Story – Val Miles

When I am working on a painting I like to bring in elements that will hopefully inspire a viewer to ask questions about what is going on or to be able to relate to a feeling or emotion. If I am able to elicit a smile or a reaction to the beauty of a colour then I feel that I have accomplished my goal.

The Inside Story – Kathleen Slavin

Inside Story as a theme brings to mind mystery movies or surrealistic paintings where the viewer realizes that perhaps more is going on than was noticed at first glance.
