Between Dark and Light Clouds

My last charcoal drawing is of a woman's image.  I got the idea for the title from a recent trip in the spring to Ireland.  It felt like depending on which cloud we were standing under, it would either be raining or sunny.  It was windy regardless, so this gave me the idea of being suspended between light and dark clouds.  Depending on what is going on in our lives, it directly affects our moods, just as light and dark clouds shift and flow above our heads.  We also shift and flow with the different kinds of clouds in our lives, or moods and different types of energy we experience.  The wind ties it all together; it is the energy which moves us from dark to light and back.  


And as the old Irish saying goes: 
"...May the wind be always at your back, May the sunshine warm upon your face"....
