Damaged But Unbroken by Tara Lemana

I wanted to express the sense that each of us is changed by our lives, that each person we meet changes us and each experience leaves its mark, leaving us damaged, changed, but if we’re lucky, unbroken. Each of the features used in this image belongs to someone close to me, none are stock, and the blue/green eye is mine. It is a self portrait even though the face is not mine. Photo manipulation using all my own resources. Canon Powershot A480 for all images. Proudly New Zealand-made.

Cernunnous - Celtic God - acrylic on canvas by margotmythmaker

Cernunnos is a potent male fertility symbol with respect to sexual potency as well as life-giving potency. He is commonly shown holding a torque (a symbol of power and success) Cernunnos is an old Celtic deity who is known as “The Horned God”. He is the lord of animals, and a special friend of the stag, whose antlers make up his headdress. Cernunnos is the Lord of the Hunt and one of the spirits familiar to warriors. He appears whenever a person acts with wild abandonment, or burns with passionate inner fire. He has been identified with Shiva and Dionysus. Cernunnos is the consort of the Goddess of spring; one of the personalities of the Earth Mother.

Tiny Dancer by Tara Lemana

Wow, this one was a bit of a journey! This started life as a photo of my beautiful little sister playing around in the back yard with my kids. I caught her in a pose that reminded me of a Spanish Flamenco dancer and just HAD to try to turn her into one. Only thing was – she was dressed in jeans, a woollen jumper and sneakers. So – first off, she needed a dress. I loathe using other people’s art to make my own so I did not want to take the easy way out by downloading a stock photo for the dress. I had nothing remotely like a the right type of dress to use so I ended up creating this one out of, I kid you not, 417 tiny layers of texture (my own resource, naturally) to create all the waves etc. HOURS and HOURS of work, but the end result was worth it, to my mind anyway. Then of course her hair style needed to be changed from a ponytail into a bun, and flowers needed to be added. / Then I decided that I wasn’t happy with the abstract background I had her in. Next followed a marathon of settings, again all using my own resources, to try her in, from beach scenes to perching on flower petals. Nothing was quite right. / This is what I decided on in the end. My only lament is that because she is tiny, much of the detail in the dress is lost. I hope you’ll view this large to get some idea of just how detailed the dress is, if only to humour me! :))) All resources my own, taken with my Canon Powershot A480 point and shoot in the past month. Proudly New Zealand-Made!!! :) Close up shot of the dancer: SOLD – Two greeting cards of this image, July 2009.
