    This has a very sci-fi quality to it from my perspective – A serious chase – the craft in the upper left going after the craft on the right, which is warping to somewhere else. And there is an intense firefight going on… :)

  • Sophie Shapiro replied

    Anthony I can see and hear everything you describe, thank you for sharing this feedback with me! I hope you’re not too light headed after the celebrations?Sx

    Have to agree with anthony it really does look like some sci fi happening. The light in the right is
    lovely and then I see a spaceship flying into it. Great work sophie.

    beautiful. reminds me of a memory, a scene from nature, a fantasy, a dream, a fleeting glance of foliage from a car window, a flash of energy, a bold embrace, and a connection with spirit.
    wonderful painting style as well.

    Just noticed this one in your journal Sophie.. can’t believe i missed it.. The Pleiades… HOME.. when i meditate i connect to the Pleiades and allways i have a feeling of love in return… your painting has the same warm feelings and i thank your Spirit for the guidance in this one…xx

    A wonderful painting, Sophie – love the colour, velocity and depth. It seems like a fantastic journey to me – I wasn’t sure if it was a coming or a going but as I’m drawn towards the light maybe it’s a going and yet there’s still a feel of emergence….... maybe a guide?
