| "The Journey"
Original Acrylic on canvas: 24" x 36"
Symbolism: The Swans
fly out over the open water, yet there is no reflection - the ego - our
sense of self - in it's natural state is but a reflection of spirit - it
is spirit that allows us to exist - when we begin our journey into the
awareness of spirit, we shed the ego - the reflection, and focus on the
spirit - which creates the sense of our self as new! The environment
being reflected in the water is our perception of choice - allows the
expression of potential - opens up options for creating. Swans- almost
became extinct, because they lost their ability to migrate - and had to
endure harsh conditions to survive. The mountains coming together in the
center, indicate our experience of dual reality. The center - the
balance of opposites - we experience the triune reality, the three beams
of light - representing the whole. The sky - our unconscious state -
filled with strong primary elements - when reflected into our
physical/dual reality - conscious reality, they appear as subtle energy.
Swans form a line - last one joining in - as we begin our journey we
attract people of a like mind - joining together in flight becoming one
intention - tuning into the same field of energy and intensifying it.
There are 6 swans - love, feminine energy - nurturing, receptive and
gentle in nature. The journey begins, not as a deliberate intellectual
pursuit, but as a longing - driving force - to seek the invisible source
of our pain within ourselves as reflected in our environment. |
