Something Is Being Released

I have been working on these paintings  for quite a while. The four you see were done over a period of months in 2014 and not exactly in sequenced formate that you see .  One day as I was looking at them I realized that they were telling me a story of what was happening with the mountains of Cachor Peru and at the same time was happening inside of me. Some thing was stirring and trying to set itself free.  what is that stirring the wanting to lift off, to be free?? I am still meditating on that and catch glimpses of that out of the corner of my eye.  What do you see, what do you think is being set free?
 I would like some responses as to what you, the viewer sees, if you like.

I will add the individually so that you can get a closer look.

Just a reminder that for the last year 2014 I have been translating the sumi ink paintings. A series of the Cachor peruvian mountains into color paintings on to canvas.

  1. Hi Jan,
    In paintings 1 & 3, I see plant like forms growing in the foreground (in 3 the rocks appear to be blooming). In 2, is see in the left lower quandrant of the painting a head that is screaming as well as the soul floating at the center. But the 4th painting is clearly of release. In the center, a dark human figure that is encircled, or perhaps trapped? And in the center foreground, the shape of a winged being of light who is taking flight.

  3. Hi Janice,
    Thank you for sharing your beautiful paintings. As I look at your mountain paintings I see pain being released. As the pain is extruded peace remains.
