A Very Old Man with ENormous WIngs

"My old Man w/Wings"

I painted this image because number one, I had painting supplies left over from the first time we painted and I wanted to use them again. The second reason I painted this is because, this piece of literature seemed to flood my mind full of images and I had to pour at least one of them out.

This painting was an abstract view of the image I had in my mind of the fallen angel. He had great ability and experience but was chained down by the ignorant ways of our world. So many times our world has great visionaries and leaders but because of our preconceived views and opinions we constrict people of their fullest abilities. The Old man with wings was captured and made a show and couldn't reach his fullest ability until he was allowed to walk around and try to fly. I believe once we are set free from our "chicken coups" we will be able to find our full potential; we shouldn't worry about what may not be normal but instead discover what we were born to do... and FLY.
