I saw the reflection of that “prisoned” tree in the window, while I was enjoying a mountain climb here in Macedonia, a moment before i could see it free. It gave me a thought of what are we doing to our mother nature and couldn’t resist to pull the shutter of my camera as a modest contribution to a free green planet.

This is obviously not an original idea, and I want to thank both ECGardner and Angelique Brunas for their works along these lines that motivated me to explore my own creativity. I hope they do not mind my using their work as a basis for my inspiration, and I am still working to achieve the balance, beauty, and artistry they have exhibited through their respective nature based collages! I will give folks a while to guess what the various panes are comprised of, they should be pretty easy to figure out, later I will insert the proper descriptions of their contents. As always I can not say often enough how wonderful the Redbubble community is and how happy I am to have found it during it’s infancy so that I may grow along with it into a more complete and accomplished artist! / / / / Portfolio Areas / / Tigers / Wildlife / Macro / Landscape / Birds / Abstracts / Cats~wild and domestic

The butterfly and birds were taken from my painting “Thoughts and Things” and the white flower is an old plastic earring….the teapot was given to me by my father who knows I collect tiny silver things like this…..from an op shop somewhere, thank you dad! The table is a cork! Once the Chunkies are created and photographed, I usually dismantle them to be used in the creation of more chunkies, so I am recycling the plasticine. These Chunkies have been very therapeutic to create over the holidays, whilst taking a break from red bubble and having my family around. I have many more to come, and although I won’t be on RB as much, I hope to also be doing some serious painting this year…so i look forward 2009 with much anticipation …

Gaia, goddess of the Earth / Your children when combined / Provide the seed to give life birth / As we know life defined / / Inseparable three children are / Mountain, Sea, and the Sky / For if these three became afar / Earth’s life would surely die / / Your children share each others gifts / Exchange these gifts all day / Rotated in unending shifts / So life on Earth can stay / / The Gaia hypothesis is an ecological hypothesis that proposes that living and nonliving parts of the earth are a complex interacting system that can be thought of as a single organism. / / Named after the Greek Earth goddess, this hypothesis postulates that all living things have a regulatory effect on the Earth’s environment that promotes life overall. / / This fractal artwork depicts this infinite symbiotic relationships that make Gaia, or our Mother Earth, the living and sustainable planet that it is. I have provided cutaways of the artwork below to view as I narrate the significance of that particular segment of the artwork. The cutaways are at 33% to give you an idea as to the complexity of the artwork. / / First, the overall shape of the artwork is not completely round. It is ever so slightly elliptical, as is the Earth, which has a greater circumference around the equator than it does across the poles. This is due to the fact that our Mother Earth is not a big rock, but rather fluid and alive under her thin skin called her crust, which itself floats around the globe as moving tectonic islands. Being fluid within, the centrifugal force of the earth’s own rotation causes the elliptical bulge on the plane of the equator. / / The lines in the artwork are continuous, with no beginning or end. This represents the symbiotic and cyclic nature of the Gaia hypothesis, whereas, all parts of Gaia are both dependent and interconnected to one another. We will follow these lines as I continue to describe the artwork. / / Water – The True Ambrosia / / When scientists go looking for life in the cosmos today, they consider first a planet’s ability to sustain liquid water. It is surmised by science today, that usually where you find liquid water, you will have a high probability of finding life. This is the key feature of our Gaia, the water planet, comprising 70% of the planets surface. / / In Greek mythology, Gaia gave birth to Pontus (the Sea). / Our own bodies are composed just like the earth, as we are about 70% water, and 30% solids. Water is found in all living organisms we know of on Earth. Our oceans also play a key role in the creation and sustainability of our protective atmosphere, pumping massive amounts of oxygen into the air. Water is the life blood of Gaia. / / Land – The Incubator / / Where water meets land becomes an ideal place to spark evolution and create the larger and more complex living organisms that inhabit land, sea, and sky. Warmed by land’s ability to absorb and retain solar energy in the form of heat, water becomes an ideal incubator for beneficial microorganisms. These microorganisms then evolve into more complex cellular life forms. So as in the artwork, where water mixes with minerals of the land, the tree of life roots down to bear it’s many varieties of life. / / In Greek mythology, Gaia gave birth to Ourea (the Mountains). / We can find most of the natural minerals of the earth within the solids content of our own bodies. We are as tied to the land as we are to the water. / / Tree of Life – The Mixer / / Life branches out, and an unlimited number of new life forms are created, with each of them forming their own ‘tree of life’ in the process and starting the cycle anew. This also represents the ‘core’ of the Gaia… an infinitely small point in a singularity where gravity is equalized, magnetism is equalized, and even space is equalized. The point at which energies, gravitational and electromagnetic, instantaneously become exact opposites of their previous energy states, this in turn creating enormous amounts of feedback energy in the process, starting the cycle anew. / / Breath of Life – The Exchanger / / Vegetation exhaling it’s life’s by-products as beneficial gases for the atmosphere, and at the same time, breathing in the by-products of the atmosphere as beneficial compounds to fuel it’s growth. Energy for this entire process is provided courtesy of our local star. This is also the exchange that provides breathable air for most of the animal branch of evolution. / / In Greek mythology, Gaia gave birth to Uranus (the Sky). / All life on Gaia, breathe life from the atmosphere, as much as they do from her water. / / Lung of Life – The Chemical Matrix / / Complex chemical reactions between particles of water, minerals, and gases are fueled by the sun high in the atmosphere creating a transport for water in the form of clouds. The clouds allow water to overcome the problems with gravity that would otherwise imprison it to the seas, and allows water to return back to the higher land, where in turn it nourishes life along the entire course of it’s trip back to the sea. Now the cycle of life on the living planet has come full cycle and is ready to begin another, yet unique, cycle. / / Shield of Life – The Force Field / / Gaia has two forms of shielding that protect life. The first is her electromagnetic gravitational field, that forms a protective envelope around Gaia as she travels through space, deflecting harmful solar radiation by conducting it around herself. The second is the atmosphere itself, being dense enough to incinerate most of the objects that we encounter on our journey before they can reach the surface. The atmosphere also provides the filter that allows a beneficial amount of solar energy to penetrate the atmosphere, while deflecting the greater amount of harmful solar particles and wavelengths of light back out into space. / / All of these components of Gaia are interconnected and dependent on one another. Because of this fact, Gaia, by definition, should be classified as a single living organism. An organism dependent of the health of all its components to guarantee the organisms health as a whole. / / The original artwork is 6000×6000 pixels at 300 pixels per inch. The gradient was created in ApoMap, a gradient editor commonly used with Apophysis. The fractal was created as a transparency and then used as a separate layer in Photoshop. The background gradient was created in Photoshop. / /

11×14 inches, acrylic & ink on papers with sand for texturing. This is the latest in my ecological series. Time’s running out and the ground underneath us is cracking. The cracks and hole in the top of the hourglass symbolizes the holes in the ozone. Our home, the Earth, is not as “firma” as it used to be. / .

The grey wolf or gray wolf, also known as the timber wolf or simply wolf, is the largest wild member of the Canidae family. Occasionally, single wolves are found in the wild, though packs are more common. Lone wolves are typically old specimens driven from their pack or young adults in search of new territory. Wolf packs in the northern hemisphere tend not to be as compact or unified as those of African Wild Dogs and Spotted Hyenas, though they are not as unstable as those of coyotes.Normally, the pack consists of a male, a female, and their offspring, essentially making the pack a nuclear family.The size of the pack may change over time and is controlled by several factors, including habitat, personalities of individual wolves within a pack, and food supply. Packs can contain between 2 and 20 wolves, though 8 is a more typical size.An unusually large pack consisting of 36 wolves was reported in 1967 in Alaska.While most breeding pairs are monogamous, there are exceptions. Wolves will usually remain with their parents until the age of two years. Young from the previous season will support their parents in nursing pups of a later year. Wolf cubs are very submissive to their parents, and remain so after reaching sexual maturity. On occasion in captivity, subordinate wolves may rise up and challenge the dominant pair; such revolts may result in daughters killing mothers and sons killing fathers.This behavior has never been documented in the wild,and it is hypothesized that it only happens in captivity because dispersal is impossible.There are no documented cases of subordinate wolves challenging the leadership of their parents.Instead of openly challenging the leadership of the pack leaders, most young wolves between the ages of 1–4 years leave their family in order to search for, or start, a pack of their own. Wolves acting unusually, such as epileptic pups or thrashing adults crippled by a trap or a gunshot, are usually killed by other members of their own pack.Asiatic and Middle Eastern wolves tend to be less inclined to socialising with any other member of their species outside their own nuclear family, passing their lives more frequently either in pairs or as social individuals, much like coyotes and dingoes. “Pack of timber wolf’s ….....” was featured in Wolves & Wild Kin “Pack of timber wolf’s ….....” was featured in Cards: Animals and pets… “Pack of timber wolf’s ….....” was featured in phoDOGraphy
