Colliding Worlds

Thank you Maggie. I appreciate your stopping by. Sorry if you got the image as well as the journal – but – RB seems in such disarray at the moment, either you don’t get an image and/or get 4 of the same one. Most odd!! Again, thank you.

Thank you Antanas. I am learning more and more with the help of some wonderful people.

Thank you Don. Your recommendations as to adding the drawn layer worked a treat. ( actually used Brush Strokes/ Ink Outlines, plus a desaturated sepia, cut out and repasted the dead weeds upping the saturation etc and overlaid with an inverse image of raindrops on a window!

Thank you Lianne. Lovely to hear from you.

Thanks James.

Hello Rosa.
Perhaps the wrong word (colliding) more liminal spaces, doorways, gateways, thinning veils, worlds like folded fabric touching each other, learning.
The old mother-earth religion (represented by the Oak/Duir tree) crossing-over with the newer paternal religion (represented by the arched doorway). I have been (gently) criticised for using a church door. The lamp-post indeed guiding the way – I wanted the light in the tree but for some reason it just didn’t look right – perhaps I should try candles?
Thank you Rosa for your visit. I look forward to your insights – you have a magical way with words – often saying what I cannot verbally express.
And a hug for you too – Lindsay

Thank you John, for your comment. I love to read other people’s thoughts and ideas on images. Sometimes, when you make an image, you are thinking consciously along one line, but other nuances creep in. I can “see” what you are saying about death and/or a change of consciousness. It has to do with doorways, I think, particularly church doors – so many life-changing events beyond them! ;o) Thank you again.
