The Making of Unicorn Universe
I'm just gonna come right out and say it - this painting was an absolute challenge to birth! But I have the say, the labour pains were all worth it in the end ... she's turned out pretty amazingly.
'Unicorn Universe'. Acrylic, Paint Pen, Collaged Papers, National Geographic Magazines + Markers on Canvas. 50 cm (W) X 76 cm (H) X 4 cm (D).
Being such an intricate, soulful piece, I thought I'd share with you what the painting elements mean to me:
- The geometrics above Unicorn represent my mental thoughts + creative dreams + purposeful mindfulness.
- The little black bird of paradise in the thought-clouds reminds me to be playful and let go of heaviness, while the hawk represents a balance of wisdom.
- The inky, Universe background holds a beautiful moon-come-wheel-of-fortune which helps me accept whatever comes my way.
- And the magical Unicorn ... well, she took on many incarnations until finally this afternoon, she felt finally complete with a swollen, rounded tummy -- she's pregnant. Perhaps it will turn out to be a pro hectic painting, who knows?!
I've also put together a little 50 second video of 'Unicorn Universe' unfolding, from start to finish. It was quite the journey, as you'll see. I hope you enjoy ...
