Portal and a poem by Dante Alighieri

Portal (Stacy Wills)
24" x 36" acrylic on canvas

The Love of God

The love of God, unutterable and perfect,
flows into a pure soul the way that light
rushes into a transparent object.

The more love that it finds, the more it gives
itself; so that, as we grow clear and open,
the more complete the joy of heaven is.

And the more souls who resonate together,
the greater the intensity of their love,
and, mirror-like, each soul reflects the other.

-Dante Alighieri (1265 - 1321)

Stacy I just LOVE this painting! So glad to see you posting again! I've been away from blogging on and off as well...

Thanks, Christine! Yes, I'm not on my computer much at all these days, as I am working mainly in the studio, so my blogs suffer from a lack of attention.

This mandala is exquisitely beautiful Stacy! I would love to hear about the process you used to create it. xox

Thank you, Edith! This came from one of the stages of another painting I wrote about on my Sacred Alter blog. If you check over there you will see that this stage of the painting was from when I was creating a "portal" for my Queen to come through.
