Images 'under construction'

This work is yet to receive a semi-glossy layer of thin veneer - which will deepen the colour intensity to some degree.
New pictures will be taken and placed here after this has been done.

Meaning and creationproces - For this painting I decided to record the entire painting process in a time-lapse video (a first-time experiment). You can click HERE to see it. I look at this painting as a summer-whirlwind of different energies bundled together in a joyous celebration of life. I wished to simply read the highest vibrational timeline available to mankind at this point in time - and to give expression to (a segment of) that idea, in my own personal way.

The couple in the centre represent a harmonious balance between the divine feminine and - masculine energies in mankind. I envision these coming together and supporting each other in a light - loving, energetic and playful way. Watching a couple dancing a tango suddenly inspired me to use this idea (dance) as a vessel for the feminine and masculine meeting in a graceful flow-state.

The 3 'Gates' behind them are about passing through different levels of self-development - until one reaches a point where the state of Unconditional Love can be accessed at any given time. Each level is well integrated and looked at with love and kindness - as it has brought the person to where they are today.

The Moon refers to our connection with the Cosmos and the indirect perception of the light (of the Sun) - reminding us that even in the darkest of times there is a way for the light to reach us. Even with a new moon - we can see the outlines of this heavenly body orbiting our emerald planet. The moon also links to the waters (with the rising and falling of the tides), with our emotions on a deeper level and to the subconscious collective field.

The 'Falling Star' slightly to the right - over the top-whale, is a little wink to our star-family and those who have their bases underwater, deep down in our oceans. It is in honor of those who work alongside our great transformational human Awakening, without most of mankind even being aware of it just yet (but the whales obviously are - they have always been aware of this ;))

The Whales refer to diving deep within oneself and getting to know oneself better. The secrets of the ocean and the depts of our own waters (spiritually) are still unknown to most of us. What a wonderful and magical journey to be on!

The tree represents deep and strong roots and standing strong in one's own center; flexible and resilient; come what may.

The Golden 'Bowl' at the bottom represents a symbol of receiving. Of being in a state of surrender and full Trust (the Gold) and Awareness (the Silver) of all energies that are constantly fluctuating in these highly transformative times.The 3 'dots' below it refer to the trinity nature of our reality (there are many ways to give expression to that; the Father - The Son and the Holy Spirit / The Physical, The mind and the Soul / The illusion of separation; left and right and the third point of view that Oversees it all and Knows that this is a dream...and so on). I will add that in receiving this image in my mind, I also sensed a strong Solar and Arcturian presence. Ancient Egypt is another energy-anchor I cannot seem to shake, every single time I look at this part of the painting. I'd have to tune in deeper and allow my dreams to reveal more to me about this. It wouldn't be the first time that I paint a symbol that isn't fully understood by me yet. I like these journies as there is always so much more to discover - all we need to do is just open the doors of our minds and hearts and see what appears naturally before us, in divine timing.

In gratitude,

Wieteke
