Om, 6x8 Original Oil Painting by Kelley MacDonald

$100 & $10 S&H


6x6 Inches

This little guy was a present from my daughter to me at Christmas time.  She has a matching one, so we're 'together' in this.  It's called an "Om", and you can see more, and the story about them (and their blog) here.  It's about 3 inches tall, and sweet as can be.  The story is about how we're all connected, and alike, I guess, in some way.  I feel that way.  I don't feel that because someone lives in a different culture they're 'less' or 'more' than me.  I think there's a link.  I'm not going to get religious on you, but most religions emphasize this link (Christ talked about us all being brothers, Eastern religions seem to have a 'oneness' aspect, too).  I think in general we are connected, so we should care for each other.  When I look at this I know that my daughter was thinking of me, and that makes me happy. And I feel a sisterhood with women around the world - OooooommmmMmmmmm!

  3. Love the painting, and the OM's sentiment - particularly the 'round the world - OM's would make good traveling companions and definitely beats ripping the legs off your standard short neck lawn flamingo to make it more travel friendly (don't ask).
