| Le Chanson de la Mer |
Did you ever stand at the edge of the ocean silently hoping to hear the call of Mermaids?
With Summer officially ending for us in the U.S. this weekend, I thought it was the perfect time for the latest
Lunagirl Moonbeams challenge: Mermaids. All of the images in the Lunagirl catalogue are beautiful,
but I finally decided to use the wistful maiden who appeared deep in
thought.
I have always loved the elusive quality
that surrounds Mermaids. Like a moon beam slipping across crystal, there
is something beautiful and intangible about them. To me they are the
all-knowing creatures sensitive to the Moon and the ebb and flow of the
tides. In my heart Mermaids dive to the part of my soul waiting to be
unrestrained...to be free to explore and discover all that life, and
Art, has to offer. They are my guides, my Muse, and I happily follow.
The
digital collage incorporates the Lunagirl Mermaid as the focal point.
Images, purchased and from my collection, are layered to complete the
background.
Do you believe in Mermaids? Or are "Mermaids" just the echo of the distant part of our souls, yet to be discovered?
