progress

a couple of pics on the progress of Brigid...

hitting the reset button!

a few things i didn't consider:

1. life. well...life is just life and it sometimes gets in the way of our plans.
2. my concept of 'one piece of goddess art per week' was vastly underestimated.
   i, somehow, thought my concept would be idea --> finished piece of art. a complete piece of art in one week, somehow worked around the edges of my other artistic commitments. hahahahahaha!!! i do that sometimes. upon meditation, the reality is that i create a minimum of one piece of goddess art every week. looking thru my notebooks & sketchbooks, there it is along with all the notes/sketches around my current body of artwork. goddess sketches.

so...having said all that i think i'll post a pic of the sketch, pics of the art in progress and a final pic of the final piece. the creation of it will be the progress which is the journey. thanks for stopping in.

peace out

I'm recovering from a studio downsize/move that has slowed me down a bit. So for last week's goddess, I'm posting a pic of a tapestry I did a number of years ago. The piece measures 29"x40" and was woven horizontally on a large tapestry loom.

This was my first piece of goddess art. My personal interpretation/connection with the goddess is expressed thru nature. The head/hair represents the sun. The base, plant roots. 

Studying it now, I see a lot of opportunity for embroidery and other adornment. Perhaps another week later in the year.

beginnings

Welcome to 52 goddesses!

my goal is simple...to make one piece of goddess art every week and to have whatever discussions, insights, whatever, may come along with that.
