Colors and Chords: Mood and Intuition

Color choices, like choosing chords, reflects mood. And, beat by beat, I’m not sure what mood I’m in these days.

Colors, like chords, can exclaim joy or express sadness.

I don’t recall experiencing one, let alone two, work projects going so horrendously south as I have this year. They’ve got me questioning my calling and career. And in the process I’ve experienced the death of a loved one, near death of a beloved, and the almost death of yet another beloved. All while hanging my first solo art exhibition.

But that’s life. It’s dynamic. It’s rarely a choice between only this or that. It’s usually a matter of both-and.

Although I had an idea in my head when I began, I’m not sure where this is going yet.

A lot of the work I do is intuitive. I start and things happen. I simply trust the process and the Spirit dwelling in me.

And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.

Philippians 1:6 ESV

My solo exhibition is getting good traffic and receiving very positive feedback from those that have gone to see it. I seem to have done a good job capturing the human condition and conveying the range of our emotions.

In addition to my solo work, I have three photographs displayed as part of the 59th RCAS Fall Membership Show and a friend who is hosting a fundraiser has asked me to contribute some work for his silent auction.

How about you? Is there something you’re wrestling with that’s got you dancing between a bright hue or a blue note?

Whatever it is, know I’m praying for you.


Until we gather around my next post…

God is good. All the time. 

No matter what.

Know you are loved.

Praying for you. Praying for America.

  1. Thank you for reading and sharing your encouragement, Bridget. While the last few months haven’t exactly been smooth sailing, we (Terri and I) remain convinced God is good! We are grateful for that and that’s where we choose to keep our focus.

    ”A lot of the work I do is intuitive. I start and things happen. I simply trust the process and the Spirit dwelling in me.” – many of my blog posts are like that! Congrats on your solo exhibition and photography. And yes I can definitely relate to the pull between the varying emotions in life, with the things my family has been facing. Sending prayers for you and your family. 🙏
