nations gathered in
names written in royal blood
no longer any curse
jeweled city walls
rainbow children feast with king
music paints the sky
healing tree of life
father’s house of many rooms
paradise restored

very interesting piece…to me, very spiritual….the different houses of royal name made me thing of the tribes of israel…and obviously the allusion to heaven in the end….
thanks for dropping in….smiles.

Loved how you bring in the healing tree – paradise indeed. Great insight to the artwork.

Wonderful take on the painting; seems that so many of us followed the darkness, the shadow of gray and B&W, the counterpoint to the lovely bright color infusion of her artwork; but you took the palette by the horns & rode it on high; nice.
