I’m going through a transition period, spending an enormous amount of time doing soul art as I endeavor to begin shadow work with Hecate using the book, Entering Hecate’s Cave by Cyndi Brannen. I’d love to say I’m working (editing my books,) but my inner witch has her own agenda…and I learned a long time ago that it’s better to flow with her tide than swim against it.
This is a beautiful painting, @ingrid it reminds me of the sea in the evening…dark, mysterious, and deeply enchanting. I can’t wait to see more of what you do!
My artistic journey started with my second painting - it revealed a traumatized heart…that was five years ago. It was then that I realized I suffered from Complex Trauma, a form of PTSD. Discovering art as a means of expressing my pain was the greatest gift I ever gave myself.
These are both amazing pieces, @ingrid - you are such a talented artist! The emotion and energy you put into the pieces makes them even more special. Thank you for sharing and wishing you a happy, healthy, and creativity-blessed 2024!
Thank you all so much for the wonderful responses to my paintings! It has been an especially trying day and your lovely words are the salve my frayed nerves needed.
Thank you all so much for the encouragement! I’m so glad you are enjoying my art. The first anniversary of my husband’s death in January 10th so I’m grieving an won’t be on much. He was my soul mate and best friend and I miss him more than I ever knew anyone could miss someone. Hugs and take care of yourselves and each other.
