Description
To many, the classic American author Flannery O’Connor remains a kind of spiritual mystery because the literary work she accomplished was so exceptional despite the difficulties imposed by a chronic illness and other setbacks in her life. How those factors may have further enhanced her creative spiritual genius rather than diminish it is among the possibilities explored in the pages of “Greeting Flannery O’Connor at the Back Door of My Mind.”
This Silk-Featherbrush Artstyle painting presents a contrast in levels of awareness often experienced by people whose imaginations are infused with a strong sense of spiritual devotion. Like some writers, poets, visual artists, musicians, etc. The shadowy green and brown left side of the diagonally-divided canvas might be compared to time spent in meditation or contemplation. The bolder red, yellow, teal, orange, and green flame-like images on the right side indicate the emergence and development of creative ideas and energy. These opposite sides could also be thought of as the subconscious and the conscious.
The canvas as a whole, as attempted with “Emerald Rose of the Heart,” takes its palette from colors associated with the peacocks which provided O’Connor with much of her creative inspiration.

Thank you very much for your thoughtful comments VIVA. The posting of this image and "Emerald Rose of the Heart" closed out the September launch events for "Greeting Flannery O'Connor at the Back Door of My Mind" but it's possible 1 or 2 more based on the book might turn up in the future.

So much right brain/left brain symbolism here, and all sooo true for those endowed .. It is a glorious thing to know of her inspirations, especially the Peacock, itself symbolic to those who KNOW. I love your beautiful silk feather-brush style, here, especially, and your inspired heart and soul, my Friend. Highest compliments....Art, Heart, Thought, as always , simpatico, beautiful....fv, VIVA
