overcome



"In looking for wisdom" yes really the answers are right deep inside you. But i think you need to get there by some unknown back doors, hidden entryways, and surprise. The other problem is you can be so absorbed in looking and asking why, that you don't see. There is no answer, it's awareness.
I love words with layers of meanings. You can read the word however you wish. "Overcome "is wrought with emotional energy, and a sense of relief. Like a great wave. That's what this painting is titled. Most of the time i am overcome in some shape or form. It's easiest if you have wings.

imaginary world

welcome to the imaginary world of Alice Muhlback:
It's how i find myself and draw from what my spirit is learning. and no i don't always listen. but they are guides. simple evocative artoons.
This is my latest painting in my series "looking for wisdom", now showing at the Manndible Cafe in Mann Library, Cornell University.
