Hello Artists & Friends,
During the last three and a half weeks there have been many events that were exciting and coincidental about eyes and vision.
One morning when I was just waking up Stephanie said to me "Do you want to hear the e-mail the we just got from Cathy and Madhu?" yes, I said. Hay Stephanie "just as I was waking up my last dream was of being in the car with Cathy, Madhu, and you when suddenly the thought crossed my mind that there is a spot in my eye and you needed to be driving! Then I woke up and you say that Cathy & Madhu wrote us. What did they say? The e-mail is about MyArtChannel sponsoring a Race For Vision. An event that helps people in third world countries get their vision back. Stephanie, did Cathy & Madhu know about my retinal surgeries? No, Cute Pants I have not had a chance to write them, isn't is a coincidence that they want us to participate in a fund raising event for vision. Yes, that seems like perfect timing I reply. I would love to support people getting their vision back especially now since my eye surgery I can truly understand what it could be like to not be able to see at a whole new level.
Then just as I was painting for the first time since my surgery an artist friend of mine called me up to see how I was doing. I told her that the phone was sitting on the top of my painting and that I was excited to be painting again, it felt healing, relaxing & comforting. I then asked her what colour she thought the phone would be sitting on (as once another artist friend of mine called and he guessed right away the phone was sitting on red) she relaxed for a minute and then said I believe that I am on a golden amber colour and she was right. She then shared with me that she also had eye surgery in both eyes and could totally empathize with where I was. She also stated something of a feeling of isolation and eye pain that was similar to mine. It was great to get to hear another artists view point of eye surgery and I felt much better after connecting with her.
Thank you for your time!
Robert
