During the war while the world fought and wept / A love was discovered when two young souls met / They found one another at a dance one clear night / Their hearts filled with hopes dreams and awe / And in their embrace they knew they had found / A passion for all to adore / He was her world and she was his / Together they were content / No matter how bad the hardship and turmoil / That daily life in those times meant / How much can a person love another / To measure it doesnt seem fair / But if one did attempt to judge their love / You couldnt find a more suited pair / Their love it would last a lifetime / It was so pure and selfless and bright / And it would prove to be an inspiration / To all those touched by its light / All the beauty in the world was reflected tenfold / When they would gaze into each others eyes / A love this beautiful that fills the soul / Never truly dies / And now he waits in heaven / Patiently for his bride / For one day when the time is right / To meet him by his side / And when their souls are reunited / The very Heavens will rejoice / And we’ll see the light so bright from Heaven / lighting up the world This is dedicated to my beautiful grandmother Rose in memory of my grandfather Brian, who sadly passed away last month. / Their love truly has been inspirational aswell as the strength, passion and character they both possess.

Being an inhabitant of this planet is the equal right of all living things….. It is our responsibility to honour their place here as much as our own. We should never seek “power” or “control over” anyone except ourselves. / What a privilege it is to walk amongst those who do not speak our language…... and to share this Earth with them. And so it is an honour to experience friendship with those who walk beside us in other form….. All profits raised from sales of this image will be sent to / Wildlife Appeal

Kylee
by Wendy SleeFor a special friend / Who has walked many lifetimes with me, / And beyond… / One who knew the silent footfall of the cat goddess, / Whose lips have sung to the dark grace of Bast, / Who has danced with Gods and evoked the spirit of Anubis… / And carried their magic through the ages / To a world that has forgotten. / Beneath the crown of divine Mother, / Her beauty is ageless, her wisdom a gift. / Time flows past so slowly, / Yet whether for a day, or a lifetime, / Her memory brings warmth, / And no matter the distance, she always sees - / Beyond this world, beneath your facades - / She knows what is real, and sees who you are. / There is no hiding when her light shines upon you. / Precious sister, you walk in another land, / and so many suns have set, since I felt your smile. / But you are remembered. and today I honour you. / (Happy Birthday Kylee)

ORIGINAL $2,800 plus postage and handling OK – I will try to keep this brief, but there will end up being a journal entry about dreaming sometime! LOL! Short version? Rolled over in bed one morning, yawned, opened my eyes and there standing at the side of my bed is this beautiful medicine woman with a wolf. “Paint this”, she said and the image was there in my mind. I was still working on the otters and seals celtic crosses and so had to finish them off. While I was doing that, the original vision morphed into the one you see before you. This mandala painted itself. The big powerful ones do. There is so much power in this painting that when I finished it and sat back to look at it, I cried. They were tears of gratitude and thanks. This is my gift to all for the New Year… Thank You Great Spirit for the gift that runs through me. Thank You for the joy it brings, for the power it bestows, for the healing… Thank You. I am blessed beyond all imagining. / Thank You. I am grateful for every breath I take, for all that I am, for all that I have. / I Thank You… From the campfire burning in the centre… / The four medicine women stand in the four directions. East with Eagle, South with Coyote, West with Bear, North with Buffalo. The hand prints to each side have the animals paw/talon prints overlaid – we are all one! Beneath each are the symbols I saw – Golden Door to the East, Talking Stick to the South, Drum to the West, Sacred Pipe to the North. The moons in their phases… / The Red Road encircling… The arrows leading out to golden bows… The Blue Road encompassing it all… The original is one metre square canvas gallery wrap, acrylic with metallic overlay.

My husband Jacob and Bully are brothers in spirit and are closest friends since childhood in Hana. Both own Harley’s and have ridden together most of their lives. Jacob and Bully are Kanaka Maoli , much loved and well respected Kupuna, with a large loving wonderful ohana and surrounded and embraced by a wide circle of friends. Makawao, Hawai’i Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / All Rights Reserved / Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi / 31 January 2009 Singular: kanaka / Plural: kânaka / Pronunciation: [kah nah’ kah] / Meanings for the term Kanaka: Human being, man, person, individual, party, mankind, population; subject, as of a chief; laborer, servant, helper; attendant or retainer in a family (usually a term of affection or pride) / Meanings for term Kanaka Maoli: refers to the indigenous Hawaiian For Hawaiians, there is a primal connection to the universe, to nature, to the land and the sea, a connection that comes from a deep spiritual as well as genealogical belief system. Nature is where it all begins for the Hawaiians. In fact, they call themselves keiki o ka ‘aina – “children of the land.” The ‘aina (land) is not just soil, sand or dirt. The ‘aina is a heart issue for Hawaiians. The very word ‘aina brings forth deep emotion evolved from ancestral times when people lived in nature as an integral part of it. Mankind and nature were considered siblings born to the same parents at the beginning of time. The word ‘aina literally means “that which feeds,” and maka ‘ainana, a term for the common class of people, means “eyes of the land.” Thus, nature feeds man and man watches over nature in return. The land gave the ancients everything they needed–not just food, but clothing, housing, weapons, tools, musical instruments, canoes–everything they crafted, wore and ate came from plants, animals or fish. Dependent on nature, they revered and respected it. Success depended on living in harmony with nature. In Hawaiian tradition, cooperation comes largely from a notion of respect for one’s own extended family (‘ohana). And Hawaiians believe they have a genealogical connection as well as a spiritual connection to Mother Nature and all that she provides. For Hawaiians, the stars in the sky are the Mother, the sky is the Father, the Earth is the Grandmother, the Kalo (Taro) plant is the elder brother, and the Islands are the Aunties and Uncles. Hawaiians can trace their genealogy back to all things… the earth, sky, stars, and the Kalo. Thus, the connection between ‘ohana (family) and the ‘aina (land) is very strong. A GENEALOGICAL CONNECTION / Depending on the canoe in which a Hawaiian’s ‘ohana arrived in Hawai’i, his or her genealogical belief system begins with Papahanaumoku (Earth Mother) and Wakea (Sky Father). With the union of Papa and Wakea comes the birth of the islands in the Hawaiian chain…beginning with Hawai’i and Maui. The third born was Ho’ohokukalani (to make stars in the sky). Soon after, Wakea and his daughter Ho’ohokukalani unite to create the islands of… O’ahu and Lana’i. Their union also creates Haloa Naka, a fetus born without life that is buried. In the place where the fetus is buried sprouts the first Kalo plant. Soon after, Haloa is born a strong and healthy man and becomes the first Hawaiian person. Papa and Wakea then re-unite and create the last of the Hawaiian island chain…Lana’i, Moloka’i, Kaho’olawe and Ni’ihau. “Na ali’i o ke kuamo’o o Haloa” / Chiefs of the lineage of Haloa… / Said of high chiefs whose lineage goes back to ancient times. / Mary Kawena Puku’i – ‘Olelo No’eau This genealogy of Papa and Wakea is critical in forming the relationship between Hawaiians and the ‘aina around them. There is a saying in Hawaiian, “I pa’a i ike kalo ‘a’ole ‘oe e puka” or “If it had ended with the Kalo you would no be here.” The Kalo plant plays a vital part in the genealogy of the Hawaiian people as their most important crop and main sustenance. The term ‘ohana comes from the Kalo plant itself. When one talks about the parts of the Kalo plant, the corm of the Kalo is called the “Oha,” the part of the plant used to feed one’s ‘ohana. Thus, Hawaiians are linked on several levels to the world around them – the sky, the earth, the plants and the sea. From this emotional and spiritual connection to nature, to all that’s around them, Hawaiians invented the term Malama– “to take care of..” To Malama the ‘aina or kai (sea), to take care of the land and the sea, to protect and conserve the environment, is directly linked to protecting and conserving the ‘ohana and all people of good will. Herb Kane, artist, writer and co-founder of the Polynesian Voyaging Society, defines aloha the following way: “An unquestioning friendship and desire to share, developed within the ‘ohana but extended to all persons of good will, aloha has been variously defined as affection, compassion, mercy, sympathy, civility, kindness and charity. It is given without restraint or ulterior motive, and it is expressed with a geniality which springs from one who is secure in his society and his environment.” The “aloha spirit” is a friendliness, a caring, a willingness to be helpful, most often expressed as the hospitality (Ho’okipa) Ancient Hawaiian children grew up in a warm and affectionate world where people not related by blood were considered part of the ‘ohana, or extended family. To Hawaiians, the family consisted not only of the usual blood relatives, but also those who were loved or who chose to participate in cooperative actions. The ‘ohana is not unique to Hawai’i or to Polynesia. The extended family or clan structure is universal in human society, although it’s more pronounced in agrarian societies before the emergence of individualism and market economies. Hawaiians and Polynesians were very much aware of themselves as a member of the larger ‘ohana. “The Polynesian universe was ordered on the concept of unquestioning deference towards elders.” / Herb Kane “In Hawaiian tradition, there is a great respect for elders (kûpuna) which surpassed any feelings of individuality. In old Hawai’i, kûpuna were respected as keepers of Hawai’i’s wisdom and knowledge. Still today, younger Hawaiians are told: Nânâ i ke kumu— “Look to the source.” Seniority has for countless generations been a key factor in a person’s status in Hawaiian society. Other residents of the youth-oriented United States can learn much from the Hawaiians about respecting and revering the wisdom of the elderly. (They) are inspirational models of healthy, successful aging and of passionate involvement – both in life and in (their activities). They also embody the Hawaiian values of ‘ohana and Aloha. Hawaiians, in general, to their eternal credit, are still known as a people of a loving and generous nature. Hawaiian culture has left an important, humanizing legacy for the world.” / Hawaiian History and Cultural Information Source

I hope you like her. When my husband saw this, he said / she took my breath away. reminds me of the first time I saw you .breath takingly beautiful / it just doesn’t get better than that :) xx This started off as a pencil drawing I did a couple of months ago, I’ve since coloured her in digitally.

We should never forget to Honour those Men and Woman who fought and fight to protect us against tyranny. I’d like to say thank you to Stuart Chapman ( The Tide Is Often Out ) and Philip Golan Remember Them for allowing me to use their images Thank you soo much. FOR THE FALLEN With proud thanksgiving, a mother for her children / England mourns for her dead across the sea, / Flesh of her flesh they were, spirit of her spirit, / Fallen in the cause of the free. Solemn the drums thrill: Death august and royal / Sings sorrow up into immortal spheres, / There is music in the midst of desolation / And glory that shines upon our tears. They went with songs to the battle, they were young, / Straight of limb, true of eyes, steady and aglow, / They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted, / They fell with their faces to the foe. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: / Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn / At the going down of the sun and in the morning / We will remember them. They mingle not with their laughing comrades again, / They sit no more at familiar tables of home, / They have no lot in our labour of the daytime, / They sleep beyond England’s foam. But where our desires and hopes profound, / Felt as a well-spring that is hidden from sight, / To the innermost heart of their own land they are known / As the stars are known to the night. As the stars shall be bright when we are dust, / Moving in marches upon the heavenly plain, / As the stars that are stary in the time of our darkness, / To the end, to the end, they remain. Laurence Binyon
