"Autumn Windows" by Sophia Elise

I have a couple of her pieces, although only 1 is technically on my wall (picuted above) - the other is on my desk at Uni, where is sits amoungst all my inspirational pictures to help motivate me to write my thesis. I don't have a photo of the latter as I keep forgetting to take my camera with me in the mornings, but it is similar to the first image below (only smaller)

In memory of Kenya

"Kenya"
7 x 9"
Graphite portrait on acid free paper
Not for sale

This is a very special portrait. I don't usually do animals (well I've never actually tried before) but after hearing that one of my new friends (I met a bunch of cool people while tramping on Stewart Island!) had lost his cat while we were all on the track I just had to do this portrait for him.

The gift that keeps on giving... pay it forward project

"Tanya" by Cheryl Irwin

I was extremely blessed the other day when I recieved the most wonderful artwork from one one my art friends. This painting was part of a pay it forward "project" that I got involved with on Facebook.

The artwork above was created specifically for me by the very talented Cheryl Irwin, which is part of her new "Astonishing Light Project". I love everything about this piece, somehow Cheryl has managed to capture me in this work without even having met me.

About the project:
"My art is my spiritual journey in many ways, as I am always seeking the gentle sweet balance of the moment, as I paint. I am painting spirit beings/goddesses/angels in a totally connected way for people who ask me. The energy feels so lovely to me and I want to share it, because we are all on a path to re-discover "the astonishing light" of our own beings. I will do a painting (oil on canvas, ready to hang) for anyone who asks me and I will ship it anywhere in the world. I am using the Buddhist system of "dana" as a model for my payment system, which matches my total belief that the universe will take care of me. You can ask me for a painting, and what I want in return is a note or email from you after you get it briefly telling me your thoughts about it – because I want the satisfaction of knowing my art has "connected" with you. Secondly I expect some monetary reward for the time and effort I put into it. I'll have a paypal button on my website and addresses etc. The amount is totally up to you and I am truly unattached to the specifics. My intention is to create a flow, of my energy out in the form of my artwork and energy back to me in the form of connections with people and money enough to carry on with this project."



Full details about The Astonishing Light Project and how to get your very own Angel can be found on Cheryl's website http://www.cherylirwinarts.com/
