I have been thinking about the labyrinth a lot lately (and not the David Bowie movie, although I confess I have watched it and bring it up in discussion a bit too often). The labryinth is a visual reminder of the spiritual journey that we are taking, it is a tool for meditation and the practice of quieting the outter chaos in order to hear more clearly. In this, I still have a long way to go, but it is good.

This is beautiful, Belle. It references some kind of genesis- like a fetus in the womb, or an epiphany within the brain.
This afternoon I was discussing with someone this seal I'd like to paint on our ceiling, or carve in styrofoam (I will explain later). "Buong Xa Di" is what it says in a Chinese labryth styling.
We are so connected, girl.
Okay, so now you have me trippin'. You commented that the bottles looked "birthed" in these spots, probably at the same time I commented that your painting references "a fetus in the womb."
Girl...
Oh mai Goodness. I just noticed the text. What does it say??
It says "I still have a long way to go." The red is me right now.
Kel,
I can't even handle this painting. When will the sheer beauty and vulnerablity that comes through in your paintings stop shocking me?!!!!
