The Epitome Of Love




         
                                   If That Isn't Love


                                                  He left the splendour of heaven
                                                  Knowing his destiny,
                                                  Was the lonely hill of Golgotha,
                                                  There He lay down his life for me.


                                                   And if that isn't love
                                                  Then the ocean is dry,
                                                  And no stars in the sky,
                                                  And the little sparrows can't fly.
                                                  Yeah, if that isn't love
                                                  Then heaven is a myth,
                                                  And no feeling like this
                                                  If that isn't love.


                                                    Even in death he remembered
                                                    The thief hanging by his side;
                                                    Then He spoke of love and compassion
                                                    And He took him to paradise.


                                                    And if that isn't love
                                                    Then the ocean is dry,
                                                   And no stars in the sky,
                                                   And the little sparrows can't fly.
                                                  Yeah, if that isn't love
                                                  Then heaven is a myth,
                                                  And no feeling like this
                                                  If that isn't love.
                                                  It's got to be love.

The Lady With A Rose.

                                                        


                     The Mystery Of Unfolding Rose

                                    It is only a tiny rose bud,
                                   A flower of God's design.
                                   But I cannot unfold the petals,
                                   With these clumsy hands of mine.


                                   The secret of unfolding flowers 
                                   Is not known to such as I.
                                  God opens these flowers so sweetly, 
                                  Then in my hands, they die.
                                                              
                                   If I cannot unfold a rose bud,
                                  This flower of God's design,
                                  Then how can I have the wisdom,
                                 To unfold this life of mine ?


                                 So I will trust in him for leading
                                 Each moment of my day.
                                 I look to him for his guidance,
                                Each step of the pilgrim way.


                                The path of way that lies before me,
                                Only my Heavenly Father knows.
                                I 'll trust Him to unfold the  moments,
                               Just as he unfold the Rose.


                                                                           Author  unknown.

An experiment to get the glazed transparent effect.




Applying colours in thin , transparent layers on an opaque layer is called "glazing". When you apply a transparent colour over another colour,the transparent colour visually alters the first ; the light rays mix, creating a visual colour blend. When used correctly, glazing can give great depth to a painting.

It is important to use extremely transparent media for this kind of painting, and you must allow each layer to dry thoroughly before applying the next.  Glazes are usually applied in a slightly deeper value than needed and then softened back to the desired depth by wiping off paint with a soft brush, cloth , or finger.
