The Graces

In Greek mythology, the Charites were the Graces.
The Graces were the Goddesses of charm, beauty, nature, human creativity and fertility. They were great lovers of beauty and gave us humans our talents in the arts. Closely associated with the Muses, the Charites/Graces were also associated with the underworld – the fertile womb of Mother Earth. The river Cephissus near Delphi was said to be sacred to them.

For many centuries we have not been listening to our Muses. Not trusting our own guidance. The Graces have been huddled together for warmth… waiting for the time when we would look to them (to our own Divinity) again for true guidance. Many men and women are now making the choice to enter into the flow of the river… into the pure creative flow of Universal Energy and connect to his or her Muse.

Let your natural creativity guide you.
Live in Grace.

This is a pencil, art marker, and chalk pastel on 80 lb. off-white pastel paper. I wanted the Graces to look cold – almost statues. They are turning their heads to us and hearing our combined voices for the first time in a long time. The flowers are starting to bloom at their feet and the faint hint of a sunrise is on the horizon.
