Winter tribe

A winter collection of owls, ravens, fox and bear.

This week I've been battling a cold, as I move between rest and the day job, I've been working on this little tribe. Each face reminds me of the varied characters and stories we all hold in us.

Soul friend animal totems

This weekend I worked on this little group of soul friends. Each one has its special magic and personality...they have captured my heart, I hope they capture yours as well!

Surfacing

The lotus flower is all the more beautiful because it blooms from the bottom of the pound, in the dark and mud, through the sludge and tangles, it finds it's way to the surface to open and shine.

A few years ago, things were dark for me. As I struggled to keep going, I promised myself that when I made it to the surface, I would get a tattoo of a lotus to remind myself of the path up to the light. 

I'm not fully there, but getting really close, and the vision of my lotus tattoo is still forming. I know that it will be on the left side of my rib cage, which according to warrior wisdom, is the closes place to your heart (where you aim the arrow for a clean shot).
