Hunger For Peace
As an artist, my work centers around the theme of world peace. Angels, the messengers of peace, are the subjects of my paintings.
I hunger for peace, so I invite you to join with me to work towards peace. Every day at your noon hour when your hunger pains first strike, let that be your signal to hunger for peace and stop for a moment to pray this simple prayer with pure intention:
“I hunger for peace.
Let there be peace.
We will attain global peace.
Amen.”
Imagine with me: Thoughts are units of pure energy. If the entire world prayed collectively for peace daily at the noon hour (even with all the different time zones) we would have massive, epic, positive thought–energy directed, like a laser, at the cause for peace and that would be more powerful than nuclear weapons. John Lennon, the former Beatle and peace poet, had written that you won’t get peace unless you want it and he urged us to “imagine all the people living life in Peace.”

About the Book
While Angels Weep, a book of prose and quotations enriched by 64 colored images of original artwork by artist Kathleen Huddle, features angels of peace. Huddle's central theme is a message of peace, highlighted by the angel's frustration in delivering the message of world peace to humankind. According to Huddle's observations, "man is remedial in learning the lesson of peace."
Huddle is inspired by John Lennon, the former Beatle and peace poet, who encouraged us to "imagine all the people living life in Peace," and urged us "to give peace a chance". Also Huddle is greatly influenced by Eleanor Roosevelt who said, "It isn't enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it. One must work for it."
Huddle's sensitive handling of various media, as well as the emotional content and countenances of the angels will leave the viewer wanting to see more. Twenty years in the making, Huddle's book of rich images of angels and prose will both delight and edify the viewer.
