Leaking I
Framed size 48X24
This one is now stretched and sold and ready to hang in a great healer's office. Yesterday my friend Lara reminded me that this painting isn't really going outside of my sphere. It's actually increasing my sphere by going and being present for me where I cannot. (How's that for a reframe? And Lara's not a therapist...though she knows more about attachment than I ever will.)
Dr. Michelle Robertson is a great healer and she also trains others to be healers. She knows well the rules of MFT, and yet still she remains creative and open to Spirit. Her reach travels far beyond her open hands---forever altering time and space for many, many people. It is so fitting and perfect that this painting should land in her office. I am honored. I hope it speaks healing to many people besides myself and Dr. Robertson.

Melanie,
I don't know how I missed your comment on my blog from way back in 2010 about my Mom. Sorry about that! Let me know your email and I'll try and get you and Bente re-connected.
I had my second dream about that painting on Sunday evening after we were at your house. This time I was puzzled because all I could see was the gold leaf~it was so bright that I could hardly look at it. So glad it went to a good home.
Erik, I was so saddened when Melanie told me about your Mom. She was such a nice neighbor when we lived in Algonquin. And I loved to hear her talk about her grandfather (the artist). I'll never forget seeing the sculpture that he did of Anita when she was a child. I thought she was so lucky to have it. It was like seeing her as a child. It looked so much like Bente, too. Even at this late date, I extend my sympathies to you and your family. You must still miss her so much.
I bookmarked your RV blog~we got a travel trailer about 2 years ago, so I always love to read about the travels/challenges others are experiencing.
Bless you,
Julie Thiessen (Melanie's Mom)
PS Give my love to Bente.
I think the dream means you are seeing things more from your spirit, instead of your feet of clay. Perhaps a solid gold painting is in order? :)
