Description
"Phases"6"x10": pen & ink, acrylics, and white gel pen on illustration board
This was one of those ideas that hit me in the forehead like a brick while I was comfortable in bed, and trying to go to sleep. Thankfully, despite the fact as to how tired I was, I rolled over and made a little sketch of an owl with antlers, and the antlers were somehow holding the moon, which was the sign of the triple moon goddess. Mother, maiden, crone or birth, life, death. I feel like i'm going through an artistic phase, or transformation. I know i'm going through it, but I don't know exactly what it'll become in the end. I'm really pleased at how this one turned out, even if I wasn't so happy with the background for a bit. See when working with the thin layers of acrylics, you have to keep it thin. I accidently went a little opaque with the darkest blue, and it flooded all of the layers underneath. There are tons of tones of blues underneath, along with orange, which I started out with. kind of a revised edition of "Luna Owl" [link]

This is beautiful, I do a lot of pagan animal artwork myself, and stumbling across this in the fantasy section was kind of like a gift. I think it's beautiful and I'm going to trek off and look at the rest of your work now.

*squeals. Oh, instant fav!!! I love those brick hitting things! I get them while walking or sometimes in the shower...but yeah, right as you get to sleep seems to be the best time for random imagery. lol

Really like this one and the meaning of it comes though also. I think there's definitely something going on in the Universe to cause lots of people to feel as if they are going through a transformation, especially artistically speaking...don't worry it's all good! Look forward to seeing where it takes your work
