mixed media work on canvas 24”x20” original SOLD one of a continuing series of portraits created through the practice of allowing….leaving the judge out and the should(s) and shouldn’t(s) and just doing the work. stories unfold that i consider universal in the sense that they are intuited based more on feeling than ideas. not my story. is it yours….or yours…..or YOURS?! lol
I might be getting a tattoo of this image or something close to it. I’m still playing with some variations of this but I really liked how this one turned out.
Enjoy! _

My freeform handbags are composed of small knit & crochet “scrumbles” which are individually joined. I then start work on the embellishments. This can mean knit/crochet flowers, corkscrews and edgings, & often the addition of beads, buttons or other baubles. Finally the bag is ready for the lining to be hand stitched into place & the handles to be attached. Each bag is individual in design & the end result of many hours work. Original bag “Green With Envy” is available in my etsy shop
If I remember correctly (I should have labelled them) these are Zinnias. I started all but my Roses, Pansies, and Violas from seeds or bulbs. The others were Mother’s Day gifts. (happy sigh) I water my babies every day and croon to them softly, as all good Mommies should. Pentax *ist DL; 18-55mm lens; Ps CS3 Extended. / My garden.

Based on my native land Progreso I took the freedom to choose a fragile boat hold to a unsecured wooden dock The deafening storm allows you to see through the lightning, the approaching of the destructive phenomenon. / _____ Basado en mi puerto natal Progreso me doy la libertad de escoger una frágil embarcación sujeta a un muelle inseguro la ensordecerte tormenta permite visualizar entre el resplandor el fenómeno avecinarse.
“So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, / The crawling locust, / The consuming locust, / And the chewing locust, / My great army which I sent among you. You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, / And praise the name of the LORD your God, / Who has dealt wondrously with you; / And My people shall never be put to shame. Then you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel: / I am the LORD your God / And there is no other. / My people shall never be put to shame. “ / ~Joel 2:25-27 Stock Credits: / Sxc.hu / aurochstock.deviantart.com

this painting almost got firt place in “Xcaret” Natural Park in a collective exhibition. of turtles behalf . / and the Cozumel, museum + Tulum institud of art. 26 years Liberanting small turtles back to the ocean. / In this painting I merge my Mayan heritage, science, and spirituality. Before I explain my painting, here’s a brief intro to Mayan cosmology for those not familiar with it. Turtle is, for the Mayans, a living symbol of the interconnected universe. They believed we live in a dimension called the Fourth Creation. The Mayans lived by the stars above, which were directly linked to Creation. Mayan cosmology is an intricate wisdom tradition with many levels of interpretation. / For Mayans, Polaris (North Star) was the eye of the heavens, residing at its very center. The deep darkness of space was thevoid out of which creation began. The Orion’s Belt constellation in the Milky Way was both gigantic cosmic turtle and road upon which all of creation exists. The sky above these three stars is a reflection of the Turtle of Rebirth, upon whose shellthefirst hearth was laid. K’iche’ people call these three stars: ‘the hearth stones. ’ They call the hazy nebula visible below Orion’s Belt: ‘smoke from the hearth’. For the ancient ones, a ‘hearth’ is neither sky nor land, it is the in-between place from which creation first appears. From the hearth, sun, like the morning fire, will rise again. Turtle’s shell is the source of the tree of life, sometimes called the world tree. The tree of life is the axis of the Earth-Sky. Its roots lie in Xibalba, the Underworld; It’s uppermost branches stretch into the sky realms. The shell of the turtle itself represented the great plates of earth’s crust. Through cracks in this shell emerged First Father, the God of Maize. For the People, maize was and is an important food source, the staff of life. It therefore made a perfect metaphor for the Tree Life. In early August, turtle’s constellation (Orion) moves into its zenith. On August 14,th Orion attains its optimum level of potency. Simultaneously, beginning August first, sea turtles are starting to hatch from eggs buried in the sands. The stars and moon are in conjunction and in accord with the Great Cycles, they know intuitively its time to emerge into the upper world. As the elders taught; all is connected. What occurs above, in the heavens, is also unfolding here, in the earthly dimension. Myth and science are two different languages saying the same thing. / I’ve painted a young turtle breaking through earth’s crust, she represents the Mayan Turtle of Rebirth entering into this fourth realm. The night sky above is the Milky Way, home of the great cosmic turtle. Beyond the stars is the cosmic womb from which our universe and all universes came into being. This little turtle, so helpless and fragile, has hatched and broken free. Before her stretches the perilous journey home, into the vast unknown, first home of all life upon earth: the sea with its mysterious depths and invisible, dark currents. I think we’ve all been in her place at one time or another. The question is, did we crawl back down into the safety of sand and shell, or set forth into the dark unknown, seeking reunification with our ancient home? The ancient cycles continue, connected and in harmony. originals at http://angel-ortiz.fineartamerica.com / oil on canvas 52×31 in. $2000 usd.
