Second Saint Icon Finished

My second Saint Icon piece in my elemental series is now finished.  I thought I'd put the humble beginning photo back up to remind you how it started. 

Here is the finished piece.  She is "Saint Celestia Sky Elemental #1"  She is the divine being who has an inside scoop into your astrological nature.  Her planetary goings on are quite legendary.You can appeal to her star signs for help in navigating the universe of energies that guide us.

This is another mixed media 3D collage piece.  I am having such fun with them.  I find a bit of tongue and cheek as well as seriousness in their creation.

In addition to making art, I am working on an updated version of my healing doll class I had taught in the early part of the 2000's.  I am merging it with my Alchemy of Doll making class to offer a more comprehensive experience.  It has been very rewarding to revisit some of the techniques and ideas I presented back then.  But, I have learned so much over the past ten years that I want to incorporate those into a more updated version.  Part of this was spurred on by my impending medical issues.  In case you haven't heard, I am having surgery.  I was diagnosed with prostate cancer and am having the prostate removed in a few weeks.  So, as a result of lots of reflection and soul searching, I have decided to help others in their healing journeys too.  I am trying to decide how to offer the class.  There is a great advantage to creating a blog like environment for those taking the class to interact in.  The other option is to offer it through another service.  But, I like the idea of controlling it myself.  So, for those of you interested stay tuned for the official announcement.  Now that I have stated my intention here, I must follow through right?  Have a great week everyone.
