Voyage
to the Murliss Sea
Love
is like a mysterious ship that can carry
us on a voyage of the imagination.
Gentle
music serenades the travelers on this
mystical vessel as the wind wafts through
the harp on the lion figurehead.
Within
its shell masts the ship carries an exotic
land, while its hold overflows with many
gifts which are like love, filled with
magic and beyond any expectation. View
Daughter
of the Deep
Mortals hold seashells to their ear to
hear the sounds of the seas and imagine
life inthe deep waters below. Perhaps
a mermaid would look into a seashell to
see and hear the sights and sounds of
the earth above.
All of us can embark on a magical voyage
throughout the universe using our imaginations
to carry us along. View
Tree
of Life
As human kind emerges from the mists of
time to enter a new millenium, hope abounds
that all nations will be united in a friendship
and love. Doves
of peace hover over our planet as a "helpful
hand" guides the younger hand of humanity
that strives to learn and grow.
Rainbow
hands reach up on either side of the tree,
symbolizing need to protect our beautiful
world forever. View
Mer
Angel
This mythical creature is a state of blissful
repose as waterfalls cascade from her
hair into a watery world of lily trees
and river horses galloping free down flowery
slopes.
The quite beauty of the moment and the
company of her own thoughts bring her
comfort and a sense of peace. View
Shared
Treasure
To each one of us, the magical seashell
whispers a different ocean song. Some
of us hear simply the soft comforting
hush of currents rushing by.
Others see in their mind's eye images
of little mermaid children playing with
dolphins and glistening shell chariots
racing by, drawn by sea unicorns and guarded
by none other than King Neptune himself.
Let each one of us listen to the magic
song we hear and share it with those we
love. View
Magpie
Fairy
I enjoyed painting this work, which I
think of as the "Magpie Fairy"
because just as the bird is attracted
to bright shiny objects which he collects,
so to my fairy has been attracted to various
everyday objects. Discarded as rubbish,
or accidentally lost, she finds them irresistible
and adorns herself with them. Obviously
because she is very tiny, the objects
are depicted larger than life. I had great
fun deciding which objects may have been
discarded by humans and would be small
enough and interesting enough for a fairy
to collect. As you can see there are many
items, from safety pins and paper clips
to stamps and a bottle top, changed from
the original wording "Dry" to
read "Fey", obviously she felt
it was more appropriate, in addition to
many forest items such as acorns and oak
leaves, she has nuts for rings and of
course, last Christmas's broken 'fairy'
light bulbs for earrings.
