A Portrait of my Boundary Profile - Amy Bernays

A Portrait of my Boundary Profile by Amy Bernays Painting 16.0 x 20.0 :: I am modeling the internal boundaries of my mind. My inside world I know what it looks like only by touching it with feelings. I guess that I have a big protrusion in the front where I am met with smiles and laughter. I know that I have a hole in my soul. You can shoot an arrow right at me and if your dead on the hole it will go through. And I have a scar here; part of my feeling wall where I am very sensitive. Where the wolf took a bite out of me. I always hurt there. There is a fable about two wolves from American native culture. The Idea is that there is a battle raging within us. A battle between two wolfs: the good wolf representing love and peace and kindness; the bad wolf is anger and greed and envy. The boy asks the elder “who wins the fight?” the old man replies “The one you feed” So I am the prowling wolf on the inside. Trying to know my boundaries that cage her. I can’t ignore her crunchiness something about when she is agitated tells me there needs to be is a boundary wall there. Then I can plop down my pin and know that is a data point :: Type: Painting Medium: Acrylic Style: Fine Art Subject: Abstract Width: 16.0 Height: 20.0 Depth: 0.5 Weight: 4 lbs Framed: yes :: All art on Zatista is original and signed.
