Witches to Celebrate Halloween, Samhain, All Hallows Eve, and the turning of the seasons

 

under her hat

was a world of lovely magic

she sat deep and sweet

within herself

yoga in flight

~

These are some older pieces that I am sharing

for Samhain, Halloween and All hallows eve.

We are entering the half way time between autumn equinox and winter solstice.

Endless blessings to you ~

her dragon kin

felt so good to draw again!

Yogini takes Flight

Taking to the sky

Pure ecstasy

For Inktober

Sarvangasana

shoulder stands feel so good

~

PS I am told that getting upside down is good

for our immune systems. 

One could even lay on the floor (bottom close to a wall)

and legs go up the wall. 

So relaxing too.

Balance Pose

happiest when balanced on a ball 

~
woke to the first snow of the season:

Bakasana

yoga with his woodland friend

we have a family of fox in our area

I rarely see them

though one night i looked out my window

just in time to see one on my steps 

under the full moon light

with grace

it flew down my steps 

then my snow path

across my frozen pond

disappearing into the forest

all illumined by the full moon

~

I like letting my world influence my art

AC: Sanctuary

she finds sanctuary

in the heart of her being

she finds sanctuary

in the quiet stance and strength of stones

she finds sanctuary

in the air all life breathes

she finds sanctuary

in all living beings

~

dear Veronica is our host for this: Art Challenge

her choice for us: Sanctuary

Visit Veronica's to enjoy how 'sanctuary' inspired others

thank you Veronica!

Tree Pose

like a tree

she stands

swaying a bit

in a star filled breeze

~

last night the sun poured through a break in the clouds

illuminating a patch of forest

Color

I love working with color

and 

using watercolor 

it is a relationship with water

 we create together

~

for #inktober

Restorative pose with a friend

Restorative Pose

she rests

stretches and meditates 

with the help of her friend

Deer Man and Little Man

when he saw the little mushroom man

he knelt 

to take him to heart
and 
watch him do his yoga

this painting was partially inspired 
by this antler I found a while ago
they fall off once a year

I hung it on my wood shed
to enjoy it daily

love that it crept into my art
~

Rock Kinship

feeling the heart and spirit of the rock
she closed her eyes
stilled her mind
and 

light moved through her being

~
 *

yesterday i glimpsed a yearling black bear getting out of my small pond and trotting off through the woods

 it paused to shake off some water

if only i looked out sooner to see if the bear paused to 
splash about
or
 take a bath 
or 
go fishing

all 6 fish are still there

it was the size of a large dog
~
I never know what i will see when i look out the wee cabin's windows

DC: Prayer, Meditation, Still Point

they climbed the mountain 

body of the goddess

to sit in the rays 

of the rising sun

to sit
in 
the here now

our dear Ariane mentioned that this lovely spring flower

a yellow bell

is like a prayer

i so agree

like a prayer and a promise

29 Faces: #21 Lucky Charm

this little yogini fairy

has a message for you:

Let Me Be Your Lucky Charm

~

I am posting this early for St. Patrick's Day

It is in my SHOP as a greeting card or print

I think a man or a woman could give it to one another.

You could write:

Let me be your lucky charm

or

Will you be my lucky charm

~

even though this is more than a face

this is my face 21 for 29 Faces

DC: liminal, Yogini and Beluga Whale

deeply immersed 

in her journey

in the liminal state

 earth woman 

begins her transformation

to

woman of waters deep

soon to be

a mermaid

~

'Liminal' is a wonderful theme Veronica, as we 

step back and forth 

between seasons...

thank you!

yesterday we had our first snow of the season:

today, a bit more autumn in the air,

we seem to be in a liminal state:

 ~
visit Veronica's this weekend to see how others have 
been inspired
