Head In The Clouds








Title:  Head In The Clouds
The Story Behind The Art:  This piece is a large mixed media canvas, playing around with a looser, freer style and subject. Cotton topped trees reflect her big cotton hair which doubles as a cloud. The vintage gown is composed of collaged layers of transparent paper and paint. The young woman is relishing her natural world, transported by the trees and the clouds to a psychedelic serenity and spiritual awakening. She is a young woman experiencing oneness and mindfulness, growing aware and becoming her own goddess.
As the youth of today might say - "It is baked".

Tree Spirit Art



Title: Hamadryad
Dryads, like all nymphs, were supernaturally long-lived and tied to their homes, but some were a step beyond most nymphs. These were the hamadryads who were an integral part of their trees, such that if the tree died, the hamadryad associated with it died as well. For these reasons, dryads and the Greek gods punished any mortals who harmed trees without first propitiating the tree-nymphs.

Medium: Gouache on wood
Size: 10″ x12″
