Show & Tell: The Divine Feminine (my version)

I painted this plate four summers ago while in the midst of my energy work classes. Because I consider myself not very artistic, I am fairly pleased with how it turned out.

My favorite touch is the earth-as-her-belly-button (you may have to click to enlarge).

The Divine Feminine is the energy of love. She is the being rather than the doing. She is the earth mother, the shelter, the abundance, the compassion, the love beyond reason.

By the way, she looks NOTHING like me. Witness the bounteous chestal area. She looks like some of you, I suppose. And like Ethel (my teacher).

Aren't we all divine?

Like the plate! Lovely colors, and I like the Earth as belly button. I had so much fun painting my own plate at one of the pottery stores. I keep meaning to do that again.

Whoa...are you talking about my boobs?

It is a gorgeous plate.

Kristin said...

I love that plate...very cool! And tell Lollipop you weren't talking about her boobs, you were obviously talking about mine...ROFL.

Delenn said...

That is pretty cool! I think you lie--you seem to have artistic tendencies!

Love the colors especially.

Cara said...

That is amazing regardless of your artistic talent!

At first glance I was reminded of the chakra work my yoga teacher did at our last class. (bad student that I am I forget which one that location is)

Energy...all around us and within us! Awesome show and tell!

Cara said...

oh - and one more thing...let's not get in a boob-size-a-thon cause I can pretty much guarantee I'd win!

Reading what you wrote about feminine energy made my tummy unknot. I didn't even know it was tense.

I love your plate!

what a lovely looking plate, I like those reds and purples and while my own chestal area isn't quite that big, I think that the plate does give the impression of the bounteous nature of the Divine Feminine.

Beautiful. I love the earth belly button!

MrsSpock said...

Thanks to 60 pounds of baby fat, my hooters are starting to look more "divinely feminine". Nifty plate!

luna said...

I love this! just gorgeous. I especially love the heart shaped boobs, and the earth belly button!

luna said...

I meant to add the heart shaped head too.
