Finally Finished

I started this painting last year sometime and it has been so close to finished
for months now. It was inspired by a beautiful wallpaper design from another 
era and sacred geometry found in Islamic art. The contrast of the fluid with the structured geometric seems to speak of all things natural and sacred. 
Finally I placed one or two more brush strokes and now it is
finished and hung in its intended spot on my bedroom wall. 
Below you can see some details of
it, I also gold leafed the edges in a distressed effect which looks really pretty.
I think seeing it finally finished that I'm inspired to work on a series
based on this.

Galia Alena
I’m a visual poet working in just about any medium I can lay my hands on although I am a professionally trained photographer and a so called “self-taught” artist (of course there have been many teachers on that path). I’m in love with the creative process. I’m a beauty unveiler, light huntress, moment caresser and visionary poetess. Ultimately, all of my work is about helping people peel back the layers to experience the intense beauty of each moment allowing access to both their intuitive wisdom and a deeper connection to spirit and self. (Because the beauty of this life cracks our hearts open and it is through the cracks that light can flow both in and out and connect us back to our divine selves) That is what I do and I do it through photography, art, journaling and teaching. I live in the insanely beautiful Blue Mountains, just shy of Sydney, with my family, our cat and all the winged ones who frequent our garden. Each day here is a wondrous delight of tiny miracles through either the glorious light or magical mists. I would love to work with you, have a look around and see where you are called... "Where I create, there I am true." Rilke
