SILK: LADY OF THE WILLOW ($180)

The willow is a tree of the Goddess and when She appears in nature, one of her many aspects is as the Green Lady - a nurturing spirit of the trees and green life of the forest. Her roots grow deep, mingling with the waters of Life, and drinking deeply of the power of the Earth. Her leaves fall back toward the earth, recycling the energies that surge up through her roots, through the strong body of her trunk, and out through the graceful arms and fingers of her branches.

This piece is silk charmeuse fabric, handpainted with silk dyes and gutta, approximately 35x35 inches, stretched and tacked to a pinewood frame. On display during the month of Dec 2006 at The Artist Tree - 828 W Sprague Ave in downtown Spokane, WA.
