"Resistance"

If this painting could talk, it would say: 

I see you over there…counterfeit and paper-thin. I see you trying to beckon me back to shallow satisfaction, duplicity, and the illusion of control. I see you and I want you to know that I'm just fine over here. Whole and relaxed with the God of all grace and beauty, who surrounds me with blossoms of blessings that muffle your siren song. 

Thank you, Jesus, for a better way. Thank you for the strength to say goodbye.

6x6, paper collage and oil on panel with collage wrapped around the edges for a finished look.  Wired and ready to hang.
