a playful painting ..

This painting is based on words I wrote in my journal when I spent some vision time sitting out on our land here about 18 months ago  and  I did indeed write them inside a heart shape   

When I came to turn this into a small painting last summer ,   I didn't look back at the original notebook  till the painting was nearly finished ..    and I found I had changed that last word from pray to PLAY ,  which was what had given me the way to finish the text & get ' out of the box'  ,  which is something I like about the painting ...    I can only conclude that my inner CLOWN knew better what was going on than I did ,  and I am ok with that :-)
