Bronze Master
My strength has come through life’s lessons
Through memories as ancient as my soul
The energy to move forward is a giftI receive my path from the earth
I receive my inspiration from the sky
I am fortified and supported in my choicesAs I channel my power inward
I focus with clarity and intention
On the direction of my heart
~ Kim McElroy
THE STORY BEHIND THE ART
This painting was one of the first pieces I created when I was learning to work in pastel. It was unique in that the art looked just as I had envisioned it in my mind’s eye. I rarely see complete images of my paintings in my imagination. Rather an idea usually comes to me as a subtle impression or a feeling that evolves as I work. This horse had no such vagueness. This creature was to be a stallion the color of bronze and the embodiment of inner and outer strength.
