Virgin a Day: 10

Hello Violets! Today's virgin is a mixed media painting I made a few years ago: spatters of ink and candy wrapper bits. From the very beginning I have always loved her image--especially the fleshy fragrant roses that rested upon her head or near her heart...

"Oh Immaculate heart of Mary,
full of Goodness--
show your Love towards us.
Let the flame of you Heart,
Oh Mary, Descend on all people."

Virgin a Day: 8

Good morning Creampuffs! I apologize to those of you have seen this image before. This particular Virgin is a watercolor I started for an artists book. She will eventually be cut into pieces and sewn together as a quilt with images of other modern goddesses and mothers of Earth.
"Like most people in modern culture, my first experience with the goddess unbeknownst to me, was with Mary...I met her with I was seventeen in Mexico in the purple velvet, candle lit churches of Sinaloa. The Sensuality and warmth of those rooms greatly comforted me."

--From Carolyn McVickar Edwards' book The Storyteller's Goddess: Tales of The Goddess and Her Wisdom from Around The World.
