Featured in Halloween and Inspired Art groups This image goes along with the poem Something Wicked by autumnwind as part of a collaboration for the Halloween Art & Writing Challenge in the Halloween Group * “Something Wicked” / The wondrous age of twelve years old / Holds stories yet have not been told / Of places chanced upon in fright / Where evil lurked with all its might / By name the Reservoir so called / A magnet dark, hung low and crawled / Its venom veiled and so enticed / For those who dared upon it thrice That summer’s eve I shan’t forget / As now recalled with deep regret / For death arose, its shape unfurled / And offered up it’s Godless world / Trembling so, yet held bewitched / The wind encircled and transfixed / Design of malice so precise / For those who dared upon it thrice This foulest dread did not offend / Enraptured rather to the end / In blackest beauty lust transcends / And so devoured my dearest friend / Whatever broke thy devils trance / I offer up to heaven’s chance / As wicked waged its dire device / For those who dared upon it thrice In nightmares beauty changes form / Of deadly charms I do thee warn / Seducing madness paid its price / For those who dared upon it thrice* Acrylic on 9×12 canvas board- Inspired by the song ‘A Beautiful Lie’ by 30 Seconds to Mars. I was watching the music video for “A Beautiful Lie” by 30 Seconds to Mars, and was really touched by the intro with the Eskimos. (If you haven’t seen this, here’s the link! A Beautiful Lie Video ) The band is really breaking grounds by putting this environmental awareness stuff out there. (It can make or break your career in the music biz) I also thought that the director/photographer for the video was a genious! It’s such a captivating and stunning video, the shots of the scenery is amazing! So….I downloaded the CD. (It’s one of my faves right now….GREAT music!) Without the video to distract, I listened to the song with my eyes closed, as I knew this one would work for my next painting. (This is kinda part of my process right now. LOL) The little electric sounds at the beginning and end of the song made me feel like I was either falling into space or just into the dark oblivion. Empty, alone, fragile…..that’s where the background came from. IT’s a deep deep blue almost black – I added the parts that kind of spin out from the inner circle to show that things are spinning out of controll and that you’re spiraling down into the depths of something. Once I had the background done, I went back to listening to the song while the paint dried. This time, I saw that poor poor faerie was the one falling into nothing. This is when I decided to keep everything dark – whites blacks and grays – because I knew there would be an explosion of red. The white and gray leaves came next. I felt like the gray wasn’t the right color, but thought it might look better after adding the trunk and branches. So, I went with a solid black for that. I chose the black to keep with the dark theme, but also because it would really stand out in some parts, yet kind of fade into the background in other areas. (A Beautiful Lie – this is a beautiful tree, but is it really there?) This is when I hated it and wanted to trash it and start over! Instead, I stepped away from it for 2 days – came back refreshed and decided to add in the red & silver. I did the silver to throw in a brighter color to balance the piece a bit, but to also show the etherealness of the faerie. The faerie has fallen and was basically held by the tree. Shes fading into the background and there are spots of her silver body throughout the piece. She’s kind of becoming everything around her. I very much believe in reincarnation and life after death. (Which is also why the pose is almost like the crusifix.) It’s kind of a play on organized religion and what we’ve been told about death in general – It’s all a beautiful lie! :) The red was chosen to symbolize blood. This makes the viewer pose some questions – is it all blood? are those blood splatters or wings? are those blood spots or flowers in the tree? All in all, it’s a play on reality – what’s really there? what isn’t? Is it all just a beautiful lie?! “Lie awake in bed at night / And think about your life / Do you want to be different? / Try to let go of the truth / The battles of your youth / ‘Cause this is just a game It’s a beautiful lie / It’s a perfect denial / Such a beautiful lie to believe in / So beautiful, beautiful it makes me…” Full lyrics / A Beautiful Lie Video / 30 Seconds to Mars

Acrylic on 9×12 canvas board- Inspired by the song “The Willow’s Lullaby” by Priscilla Hernandez. This piece was created while listening to Faerie Radio. (If you haven’t listened to this, you must! Faerie Radio The Soundtrack to the Magickal Realm ) This ongoing playlist is full of music that stirs the soul – there was something about the type of music that brought the color blue to the front of my mind. So, I layed down some Phthalo Blue as the background. Next came the bright green ‘leaves’, I needed something very vivid against that deep, spinning blue. Then came the tree trunk and branches, followed by the fade into a ‘watery’ area, and finally the darker ‘leaves’ were added. I sat back to get a good look at the painting, and knew that it needed some final touches. About this time, a beautiful Priscilla Hernandez song came on. The melody and sound of the instruments in this song helped to move my brush and add in the Faeries and thier ‘faerie dust’. I had clicked over to Faerie Radio to see what the name of the song was because I knew it would be my title. I saw that it was: “The Willow’s Lullaby” and thought to myself; “How perfect! It does look like a Willow Tree!”. The lyrics for this song are a bit darker than the sound of the song suggests. “When the willow sings half alive / it releases all the pain it hides inside / if you hear its song alone / You fall sleep and your soul is gone…” Is this what we see in our dreams beneath the Willow? Or are these Faeries here to take you once you have fallen asleep? Not all Faeries are kind…I do believe these could be a terrible beauty… The Willow’s Lullaby Lyrics / The Willow’s Lullaby Video / Priscilla Hernandez

Angel Model from ~b-e-c-k-y-stock at DA Without Words Based on The Angel by Hans Christian Andersen Plot summary A child has died, and an angel is escorting him to Heaven. They wander over the earth for a while, visiting the child’s favorite places. Along the way they gather flowers to transplant into the gardens of Heaven. The angel takes the child to a poverty-stricken area where a dead field lily lies in a trash heap. The angel salvages the flower explaining that it had cheered a crippled boy before he died. The angel then reveals he was the boy.

Digital finger painting (with a mouse), completed through the wee small hours. I’m having trouble sleeping, too many images in my head. Even when I’m asleep, I’m drawing in my dreams. I’m having so much fun experimenting with digital, it’s a new medium for me and I just love it. FEATURED in ‘Creative Cards’ August, 2009 / FEATURED in ‘Lifeline’ August, 2009 /
