Gliding Across the Valley

The inspiration behind this painting is a visit to the Rocky Mountains. The hills are decadent with green and blue foliage as if wearing a rich royal garment with new buds springing and a sparky of wild roses and daisies.
Oh! How I love to be there again and again.
The winding road vanishing behind that mysterious grove is another untold story!

YA HAYYU YA QAYYUM BI RAHMATIKA ASTAGHEETH
Anas bin Malik said: “Whenever a matter would distress him, the Prophet (ﷺ) would say: ‘O Living, O Self-Sustaining Sustainer! In Your Mercy do I seek relief (ya hayyu ya qayyum birahmatika astaghees).” And with this chain, that he said: “The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘Be constant with: “O Possessor of Majesty and Honor.

By the Lake

Looking at this painting the wind seems to whip through my hair, knotting it beyond belief, as sprays of water splashes me in the face. Sunshine beat down on all of us, helping to warm us all. Laughter drifts about on the boat as we all enjoy ourselves.
I can gaze at it for hours with my coffee and unwind the troubles of the day.

Down, down down
The milky white clouds floating in the howling wind match the chalky white color of the snow, scattered all over the colossal mountain. The forceful wind is blowing a gale like a hurricane providing us with an intrepid journey ahead.
The jagged rocks are like sharp knives piercing my feet through my thick leather boots. I am staggering up the vast mountain through the overruling wind that is gently brushing past my face.
I am in love with this slow drifting snow… going down, down…..down”
