Any excuse to add another to a series of "Holy Cow " images, one of my favorite subjects.
Each one seems to emerge with a different attitude.

To me, there is nothing more emotionally moving and spiritual than a marching band.
I get so worked up, sometimes I even cry!
The reference photo for this was taken as the U Mass Marching Band
marched by us at a football game.
I was enthralled.

I have been going to different churches a lot lately. I consider myself a spiritual person, but not religious.
I don't really know where I belong, but I like comparing the different philosophies and seeing where the connections are.
I do believe in love and kindness. That's pretty universal.





"Spirits"

Kelley MacDonald
I eschewed my initial inclination to paint something 'spiritual' or showing holiday 'spirit' for reasons explained on my blog. I do enjoy the colors, sparkle and liveliness of cocktails, and their bottles are endlessly interesting to me. I could stand in the Package Store and just LOOK at the bottles on the shelves...

After trying to conjure up a painting of something spiritual I realized that this one says it all.

"All About El"
by
Joan Brancale
Whenever I'm having a good time, cooking or spending on clothes.. I think of my Mom. She's my spirit--and she had so much spirit!-- fun, practical and tough. Ella May loved a few luxuries like Joy perfume or her old mink coat which was re-modelled over the years--I still have a remnant of soft beautiful fur. The touch of it reminds me of sitting next to her and enjoying its warmth and her scent.

Ah, experiencing the sweet presence of the Holy Spirit, there's
 nothing like it.  All peace, all contentment and such love!
