Mary Sylvia Hines Artist's Statement
'' Even tho I could never paint all the pictures that I would like to paint, write all the poems, songs, nor novels that I would like to write,
I do hope that the goals that I do accomplish will help nurture the souls of all who behold them, at least in some small way, whether they bring the beholder comfort, understanding ...
or even just a smile.''.......................Mary Sylvia Hines
The following comment is very emotional but only one of many many positive comments made in reference to my PORTRAITS...........
'' When I showed it to my Mother, she started crying because of the likeness ''.....
When I first started painting and drawing portraits, .....they would look so REALISTIC that I felt like I was crossing over a ' sacred line '..that I shouldn't be crossing........it took years for me to realize that the ' sacred line ' I was actually crossing was in reality the conflict of my own insecurities, as an artist and personally...or the negative forces in us that battle the positive ones......but as I said, as I matured as an artist and personally, thru my positive thinking & positive choices, & acting on those positive choices, the positive force won the battle therefore allowing my creative talents to flow naturally, as they should....
I believe that Art is truly an extension, or channel, of our inner souls....
I personally believe that we cannot really mature artistically unless we are willing to mature personally.......and that basically involves ridding ourselves of negative forces, or thinking, that hinders us from maturing personally...
I also believe that we can positively condition ourselves to do or be whatever we want to do or be, regardless of the negative forces that may surround us........In retrospect, I believe strongly in the difference that can be made in one's life thru the power of positive thinking and positive choices, & Art.
