This is my entry for the Mixed Media Monday challenge (personal symbols and myth). For me the exploration of the Divine Feminine and Nature are an ongoing theme in my art and my spiritual beliefs. It is what inspires me to create. I began a study of the Goddess about 12 years ago ( being disappointed with traditional religions) and found through myth a natural explanation of life and its mysteries. I try to follow the seasonal wheel and incorporate nature and its cycles in all that I do. This digital piece is an expression again of the feminine spirit in nature, feeling at home in her beauty and abundance.

Wonderful! The images you've created in this series so far show a real understanding of the spirit of the goddess and how she manifests herself in the natural world. I just love them.
ReplyDeleteLori - your images all speak to me. So beautiful, so divine!

ReplyDeleteStunning art and brilliant layering.
Lori, this is so beautiful...All of your art speaks so clearly of your spiritual connection and is so meaningful and uplifting...To me, it speaks of cosmic consciousness...amazing! Just GORGEOUS!

So stunning! I love the layering and the dragonflys. . . And I agree with you - there is so much to learn from the religion of beauty and nature. I love how you connected them both in this one piece, Kristin xo

ReplyDeleteJ'aime beaucoup le côté mystérieux de vos collages !

Thanks for stopping by my blog. We are essentially neighbors, aren't we? I think most of my visitors are from outside of California.
ReplyDeleteYour work here is beautiful. I find it very mysterious and magical. I'll have to go take a look around your blog.
Gorgeous art work and beautiful take on the theme

It perfectly symbolises your writing there Lori and is incredibly beautiful. I'm reading Women who run with the Wolves at the moment which promises to be a fascinating read. Have you read it?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful collage, I love how you used the dragonflies. I saw several on my walk today they always make me feel blessed.
ReplyDeleteLove this piece, Lori! Gorgeous as always.
ReplyDeleteWow Lori , your a master in blending! Fantastic piece!
ReplyDeleteLorie, I run out of things to say because your work is constantly awesome and gorgeous and scrumdidlyumptious.
ReplyDeleteShe's just perfect as a Goddess.
ReplyDeleteYou have captured the digital equivalent of the divine female. I've always seen your moon phase on your blog and was really intrigued by it. Nature does have cycles. That's evident in all aspects of nature. I was really taken by your post and your philosophy and would love to learn more about it. It's a bit ironic that you live in an area where the seasons are far less evident and demonstrative than other parts of the country.
ReplyDeleteAgain, love this piece and what it stands for.
This is a wonderful piece, and certainly, your imagery strikes a cord for me as well. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLori I just adore this soulful art piece, just beautiful.She is just a fabulous Goddess, really outstanding...

Hugs,Laura.
