Art as Vision - A Tool for Transformation and Healing
HOPE Series ~ The Animals
Kinship with the animals
The animals offer us a sense of hope. They help restore us to our true instinctual self.
They help us to realize we are all connected.
Giraffe
A giraffe kept appearing in my dreams as if to say: "paint me, paint me". Joseph and I delighted in painting this magnificent creature. This piece really touches our hearts.
Owl
This piece was created for a good friend who has an affinity with the birds ~ owl, one who has the ability to see in and through the darkness.
Tiger
This Tiger image speaks of power and clarity of focus. A dear friend of ours is helping to save the Tigers through the World Wildlife Fund. Thank you!
Eagle Soars High
Eagle teaches us to fly high toward freedom, to connect with spirit, to see the bigger picture of our life, to see clearly the details from that higher place.
Grace
Have you even noticed how graceful a swan is once in water? I wonder if she is here to teach us to find our natural place of grace and to be willing to also walk on land - those places of less comfort.
Lives in Two Worlds
Joseph and I both have had a strong affinity to frog medicine ever since we were children. We are amazed at frogs ability to live in two worlds. The heart with wings symbolizes frogs ability to move between the worlds.
Penguins
One day the penguins stared talking to us as though they wanted their voice to be heard: 'please take care of us".
Hummingbirds
Hummingbirds travel far and wide to find the sweet nectar of life. Hummingbirds teach us to drink from the inner well of our own knowledge and find sweetness in each and every moment of life.
Dove and Sword
Every action creates a reaction - cause and effect. Are you willing to walk in peace, put the sword down, and perceive life through the single eye of the heart?
Four Winds
As we work within sacred space, we call upon these energies - Serpent, Jaguar, Hummingbird, Eagle, Mother Earth, Great Spirit - and they come, holding us beautifully and we are forever grateful.
Dolphin Dreams
To us, Dolphins are very spiritual in nature. The are able to communicate across vast distances to each other. The dolphins remind us to play
Unicorn
Do you believe in magic and miracles? We do! Consider the Unicorn's horn as a pointing device to help carry you towards your dreams.
Serpent - Pachamama
This image came forth as I spent time in the South direction of the Medicine Wheel. One aspect of Serpent is to heal the past and touch life with beauty - thus the healing hand come forth out of the belly of the Mother Earth.
