Hi Carol, just thinking about you, wondering how you're doing...

Posted by cookieholmes on October 15, 2012

Hi Frederique...thank you for thinking of me. I have been taking one day at a time, trying to move forward. Busy working, busy working on new concept for mixed media pieces, busy trying to put my life back together. I hope one day soon, I can get back fully and see evevryones artwork. I hope you and yours are doing well.

Cookie, I cannot begin to say I know how you feel, becuase it is different for everyone. I am soooo sorry for your loss. It must be nearly unbearable. As fRed says below, one day at a time and one breath at a time.

Posted by cookieholmes on March 16, 2012

Thank you, Ramon...most of the time it has been unbearable...I am lost.

Posted by frederiqueroy70 on March 13, 2012

Carol, I'm so sorry... there are no words... Take one day at a time... one breath at a time... I hope you can turn to family and to your art for some comfort.

Posted by cookieholmes on March 16, 2012

My family has been wonderful, but I don't want to burden them. I have created my first piece since my husbands passing called, "A Love Story" and I just received email that it is going to be published in a book, but I won't know more until later. So knowing my husband Jimmy was my biggest supporter, I think he would of loved this. It is in memory of him.

Posted by frederiqueroy70 on March 16, 2012

A beautiful homage, Carol!

The social issues-topic-crude and REAL of this file is an outstanding sour anthem to our own myopia....hope we can fix that together soon.

Posted by cookieholmes on January 24, 2012

Yes, Adolfo...it is crude and real. In this series, the birds are society, the issues are real, and the wires remind us "we" are ALL connected. We must move forward and press on in hopes of a better world. Thank you my dear friend for coming by the gallery and for your generosity. xo

I love the images of your "Society Series". Not only are they beautiful and evocative images with excellent color choices they are rich in meaning and depth. They use of the birds is very interesting to me. To me represent evil or at least oppression, especially the swarms of them. Using them as recurring image is very effective. I hope I did't offend you if I misread the symbolism of the birds. Even if I'm wrong they are still very beautiful and powerful images images

Posted by cookieholmes on November 06, 2011

Thank you, and I'm elated that you shared your thoughts on the series, I created it so others can relate to it in their own way, since birds are very symbolic in many different ways, different thoughts about them can apply to different images. They represent not only evil, freedom, hope, but also messengers, and the list goes on. They in themselves are a society. The wires can represent a connection or even power. These things we see everyday and pass by them without a thought, is similar to the "in your face" news media, it's there and at times you can get immuned to all the troubles because there is so much going on all the time. In fact, that was the origin of this series. I couldn't escape the events of the day so I chose to produce something positive for me, an escape route.

Posted by rkbarts on November 06, 2011

Thanks for the explanation of the different symbols. I find them even more interesting now. They are well thought out and and expressed in each image. Again a beautiful and rich series. I this e series done or are you working on more. I saw the st

Posted by rkbarts on November 06, 2011

Whoops, I saw your wordpress sight and the story about being surprised by a story about your work, that must have been a great surprise

Posted by cookieholmes on November 06, 2011

This will be an ongoing series, but I am currently creating a book for 45 of the images to the series. Next year this series will start to evolve into mixed media pieces. So I'm excited.
