Art Every Day Month – Day 23: Shaman Girl

by | Nov 23, 2009 | Articles | 7 comments

This piece is a painting using watercolors that I have in a little travel watercolor kit. I’m away on vacation and am in one of my favorite places in the whole world which is the Southwest desert area- Nevada, Utah and Death Valley in California. I have a pretty strong relationship with the land in these areas and I always feel like I’m more empowered and in touch with myself when I am there. So this piece kind of feels like a bit of a self portrait -me as nature girl who is connected up to the animals and the elements and feeling her spiritual oats!!

Goddess knows why I have green hair… it just felt like the right thing to do. And the zig-zag crack in my forehead has shown up in a couple of my other paintings. I think it IS related to my intuition opening up a bit more. Or it could just be a symbol that I am completely losing my mind. Which are probably one and the same thing!!

  1. Powerful Goddess image, I can see you are feeling the power of the land you are visiting. Enjoy your vacation and feel the fun that the green hair brings to your life!

  2. You look great in green hair! (LOL now there is something new to say!) LOL.

    Love the openness you are showing in this unique self portrait. Can’t wait to see what happens next!

  3. I love the green hair, the snake, your shaman girl! She has lots of energy. I fee like she has so much to say and share. Enjoy your time in the desert…gorgeous sunsets and the dry air!

  4. Love your shaman girl and the imagery of the lightening bolt on your forehead.
    I am connected the land of New Mexico as you are to that land. There is such power and peace when you feel that connection.

    Have a wonder-filled week.

  5. your are lucky to be in primal nature … and your picture is very energetic and full of life..

  6. Wow – the energy in this picture is amazing! I too love that area, although water calls me much more strongly. I was amazed at all the life in the “desert” and found it beautiful under the stars. I don’t think I have ever experienced heat like I did in death valley.

  7. I love this and it reminds me of Harry Potter with the forehead lightening bolt sort of. I like the hair. My daughter keeps drawing purple hair which is also a nice change. :)
