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.

'Double Departure' by Contemporary Realism Still-Life Artist Paula Peacock

Double Departure by Paula Peacock
Oil on Canvas
16" X 20"

In 2014 I lost my little sister to breast cancer and my son was killed 6 months later. This painting honors the people I lost. The monk figurine represents me and the two monks in the mirror represent my son and my sister. I am on this side and they have transitioned to the other side yet we will always remain connected as shown by the thin white ribbon. The white butterflies on the other side(in the mirror) are indicative of angels (for me). The nautilus indicates my mental state at the time, trapped, alone, yet protected by the outer walls I had erected while I dealt with grief.
