She is Retrograde

I couldn’t do anything happy yesterday.. my art felt dark and it scared me. I trashed for hours so much.. which I don’t mind and am not fearful of as for me it is practice. but this is what came as a finished piece after hours.. she is my darkness.. she is my retrograde.. here is a great journal that tammy/moonsprial put out.. I don’t do forums but it is interesting how she points out the feelings I seemed to have felt lately. Betrayal and Anger too..

    Damn, Lina, this is exactly how I’ve been feeling the last few days (today is better…) deep, dark, vast, hole of sinking depression. I feel you in this; she’s scary and liberating, the latter in the sense of recognition and acceptance that she exists.

    if it was not for moon’s journal here I feel I could not understand the depth of this dear sister.. I have been b mailing a couple friends.. it is not just us.. really interesting how we feel as the transition ( i just got chills) of going from summer to autumn and now winter is almost here.. is is the high and going to the lower.. that sneaks up on us.. I feel the goodness of talking this through.. today is the first windstorm and I feel like I want to walk in the storm and cry in it.xxx

    ((((((((((((((Lina)))))))))))))))))

    Amazing work of art…....so powerful,
    Darkness was everywhere the past few days. I was surrounded by it and nearly suffocated by it. I’m sorry it had hold of you, too.
    Here’s how I expressed mine, last night.

    I like yours better, though.
    And I hope your day today is full of light and warmth of the spirit!!!!

    You have done great with getting your message across with this image and that journal was a bit of an eye opening read. I have had my own experiences as well so try to keep low key as best I can. Awesome work you :)

    I see a lioness here, dear Lina – and sometimes our finest work, our most expressive work arises from our pain or suffering. Such is the case here as well as your moving poetry the past few days. This is just masterful, powerful and moving beyond the technical excellence of the piece! Beautiful Lina – and honest.

  • linaji replied

    between you and Tammy I feel better.. this has been quite a few days.. and I am breaking to shower and the wind and rain are out Lianne.. do you ever like to walk in it and feel lonely to the bone.. crazy huh? but I love feeling lonely in the howling wind!!! For some strange reason it makes me feel like a walking poem… Love to you and your day!! hugs!

    Exceptional and brave work, from the depths. So thankful for the link to Moonsprial’s journal. It is all connected. The good and the bad. The dark and the light. We find the courage in our hearts together(through beautiful work like this) to face the dark ones and send them back to their lonely holes. Where they could have a heart beating with courage and love, they have just dark sucking holes. They stay empty even when they have finished gorging on someone’s purest soul. Always empty.

  • linaji replied

    Oh my.. this is lovely and you are quite wonderful.. when I was just getting out of the funk yesterday morning I read this a few times.. your take on ‘seeing life’ reaches me. everything you do and the comments you leave touch me..thank you.

    She is beautiful even in her darkness. I had to get out in the fresh air today to help clear my head. Winter is approaching and I needed to do some work around the house and property, working outside with my hands always helps to bring me back to a better place in my head and heart. Hope your trip out today was healing for you dear Linaji.

  • linaji replied 21 days ago

    Dear Jack.. I keep running into you trying to catchup on everyones work..time for me to hop over to your neck.. anything new??? xoxoxooxoxxoo

    This is so evocative – the image has a broody impatient feel. I love the composition – the way you have skewed her half out of frame. Squeezing something beautiful even out of intense frustration is a magical act!

  • linaji replied 18 days ago

    Love this comment, I remember there was a part of me that knew somewhere my sweet Rachel had a comment to absorb and bask in!! lololxxx
