New Art Up and a Sale!

I've recently added some new art that I'm excited to share. Here are a couple of them. First, is Freya's Cloak which I created awhile back. The goddess Freya had been popping every where in things I read and in my art. When going through a difficult time, Pilar suggested imagining Freya's cloak protecting me. I liked that image and started doing more reading about this goddess. It was said that Freya had a cloak made of falcon feathers that allowed her to fly in the shape of a falcon. She is associated with fertility, the moon, water, wealth, creativity, the rune Fehu, and sexuality. Freya had two sacred gray tabby cats (a girl after my own heart!). Later those same cats were seen to be related to witches (the priestesses of pagan religions).  Cats were thought to be shape shifters and guards of the gate to the underworld, where Freya was known to go. I really love this piece and I hope you do too! It's now available as a small print on 8.5"x11" velvet fine art paper and the original is also available, which is on a 10"x10" panel with painted sides that can be hung as is or framed. You can read more about the piece and purchase prints or the original here.

Other new pieces include an 8"x10" encaustic work (hot wax painted on panel), called "Women of the Forest," that continues the theme of my Memory Tree pieces in exploring family history, memory and Alzheimer's Disease.

I also run a monthly sale on a piece of art, so if there's a piece you'd love to see on sale in the future, let me know! This month, the sale is on "Growth" which is 6.5"x12" on paper and is available unframed or framed. It's also available as a large print (13"x19" framed or unframed) or a small print (8.5"x11" unframed.) All versions are 10% off for the month of December!

Last month's winner of a free print was Sarah in Oregon. Congrats Sarah! You can be in the running for a free print every month by signing up for my monthly newsletter.

And I'm drinking more tea and cocoa than usual. :-)
