'The Shape of Flight'
Presented by Commonwheel Artists Co-op at Commonwheel Artists Co-op Manitou Springs, CO
The Shape of Flight is the perfect vehicle for exploring those places of transition. Flight is more than movement through the air. It is the moment between fear and courage, between holding on and letting go, between earth and heaven. Throughout this collection, birds, figures, and symbolic imagery become visual reminders of hope, freedom, peace, and the quiet ways our spirits are lifted. Each painting invites the viewer to pause for a moment and consider where they are in their own journey. The hope is that these works offer not only beauty, but also a sense of wonder—and perhaps a glimpse of the places where heaven gently touches earth. Graphic by Kathy Sullivan.
