As the mom of the speck in the universe Olan (on heck I’m only a speck a poem Olan wrote as a child) I think I worked to keep that wonder of the world child-self in all my children..we are born with gifts and it is when we are using our gifts that we have to share with our fellow man we are helping that beautiful light in our souls grow. Olan just captures the living hue of the subject and himself in his work and hopefully the energy he gives it as the piece hangs in his patron’s space emits great positive energy to all who view it.

To Olan the homeless have no home in which to hang works so they are welcome to the energy when they come to a showing…and then when they come perhaps …among all those who come to a showing there is perhaps.. person(s )among those gathered the gfit of writing a program to help the homeless…..

and so it goes ..
the dreaming of the child-self…
I have a beautiful story to post about the painting under commissions on my site http://www.eslye.com

The patron called me to tell me that his home completely burned to the ground..
but the fireman that went in to save the dog that is also in the painting had to pass by the living room door to rescue the little dog he saw the painting over the mantle and
was moved to grab it and the dog.
It was all that was saved from their beautiful home in Mobile, AL

Talents
by eslye moore

A talent is something I cannot see
because it’s down inside of me.
I must work to make it show
so my talent down inside will grow.
And when my talent is close at hand
I will use it to help my fellow man.
