Searching

In "Searching," Diane Lynne Chanako recounts her own search for her next painting, realizing it was right in front of her eyes. She painted her daughter, who seemed engaged in a parallel state of mind: searching.

“When I saw her as an image of myself, I saw my painting. Sometimes that is how the concept of a painting happens, like the turn of a breath.”

“Searching” reflects not only the proximity of the artist’s observations, but also the greater universal search for internal, external, and spiritual answers.
