How many sales of this design – 1 sale so far :) / Pelican Love is from the ‘Beach Series’ and ‘Friends Series’ of original paintings by Karin Taylor. / It was created using ink and pastel on pastel paper. There is a beautiful story about the love that pelicans have for their babies, I thought I’d share it with you Reference taken from the Wikepedia Encyclopedia (please forgive the length of this, but it is SO interesting, thought I may as well share the whole thing !) In medieval Europe, the pelican was thought to be particularly attentive to her young, to the point of providing her own blood when no other food was available. As a result, the pelican became a symbol of the Passion of Jesus and of the Eucharist. It also became a symbol in bestiaries for self-sacrifice, and was used in heraldry (“a pelican in her piety” or “a pelican vulning (wounding) herself”). Another version of this is that the pelican used to kill its young and then resurrect them with its blood, this being analogous to the sacrifice of Jesus. Thus the symbol of the Irish Blood Transfusion Service (IBTS) is a pelican, and for most of its existence the headquarters of the service was located at Pelican House in Dublin, Ireland. For example, the emblems of both Corpus Christi College, Cambridge and Corpus Christi College, Oxford are pelicans, showing its use as a medieval Christian symbol (‘Corpus Christi’ means ‘body of Christ’). Likewise a folktale from India says that a pelican killed her young by rough treatment but was then so contrite that she resurrected them with her own blood.[1] These legends may have arisen because the pelican used to suffer from a disease that left a red mark on its chest[citation needed]. Alternatively it may be that pelicans look as if they are stabbing themselves as they often press their bill into their chest to fully empty their pouch. Yet other possibilities are that they often rest their bills on their breasts, and that the Dalmatian Pelican has a blood-red pouch in the early breeding season.[1]

Painted around the same time as “Ukulele Lady” she was gifted to friends when after a major show on the other side of the island she arrived completely warped and couldn’t be hung. She is painted on a masonite panel box. She symbolizes being the sea/see…..rising from the dark…..movement and being still. Notice the Humahumanukanukapuaa. (sounds like huma huma nuka nuka ap poo a a)..Hawaii’s state fish. Sometimes it’s hard for me to put my images into words since the point is that they are images asking to be seen and everyone has their own to see…...

MUSIC Sitting in the morning sun / I’ll be sitting when the evening comes / Watching the ships roll in / And I watch ‘em roll away again [Refrain] / Sitting on the dock of the bay / Watching the tide roll away / I’m just sitting on the dock of the bay / Wasting time I left my home in Georgia / Headed for the ‘Frisco bay / ‘Cause I had nothin to live for / And look like nothing’s gonna come my way So I’m just… / [Refrain] Look like nothing’s gonna change / Everything still remains the same / I can’t do what ten people tell me to do / So I guess I’ll remain the same Sittin here resting my bones / And this loneliness won’t leave me alone / It’s two thousand miles I roamed / Just to make this dock my home Now, I’m just… / / a summer romance between Fractal Explorer & Apophysis

/ / “Beach Picnic” is a pencil drawing which I’ve coloured digitally, I hope you like this image with mother and daughter in similar sundresses. As a child we enjoyed beach picnics all the time, mum would make us special fried chicken (better than Kentucky Fried) and we would go out on the boat to a little island, where i would play with soldier crabs for hours on end, while dad fished and mum sunbaked… they were wonderful times. We also went on the annual Beach Picnic to Bonny Hills with the church and we were great friends with the priest back in those days who was a top water skier.. We would see so many things at Bonny Hills, sea snakes slithered past in the creek where we were swimming and there were amazing white clay deposits in the sand….hours of fun were had by all… not to mention we even had a little mass there… top fun :)
