the wild masculine

October 28, 2009

Mmmm he stands proud, a jaguar draped across his shoulders.  Its no surprise I felt the need to surround him by horses, they respresent Power, grace, beauty, strength, wildness and freedom.  He represents the masculine energy in us all.  The bronze statue ‘Orpheus’ by Astrid Zydower,  is larger than life and stands in the grounds of Harewood House just outside Leeds, Yorkshire.  Orpheus was the greatest musician and poet of Greek myth, whose songs could charm wild beasts and coax even rocks and trees into movement.  His magnificence radiates from this image.  I put together the image with sky recently taken in malta, the land of the divine feminine, there are so many temples to the goddess here, it compelled me to produce a “balancing” image

This lady from Rio has been in inspiration to me, her cut paper work inspired me to get going with my own work at the end of 2008. However since then Analus’ work has moved in many and colourful directions, this piece made me smile so much that I wanted for myself. WIth Analu’s permission I have downloaded and printed it out and its destined to be framed and hung in my home.

jelly-wedding_jelly_02-1 Hated it as a child, in fact hated any desserts, my birthday parties were surreal savoury fantasies conjured up by my very talented grandmother.  Today I have found a smidgeon of sweetness is desirable, especially the taste of chocolate, but the the texture of jelly is just something else……………………..  especially when made by Bompass and Parr, they have taken jelly making to another level !!

around the corner

dsc_0613img_0992Sitting here this morning looking out of my window, there is a vague stirring in the breeze……..  the beautiful trees still in the their winter slumber, are beginning to awaken.  The air is warmer, the soil is warming and soon the small buds will swell and eventually  burst open into a riot of green growth, blossoms and stems reaching their necks up to the sun.  The seasons are so beautiful, something to look forward to in each one.  The promise of summer and the abundance and colour it brings forth really fills me with expectation and excitement of what is just around the corner …….img_0990
