Our Lady of The Sweet Waters
*
It grows late and I won't sleep.
*
I am burning.
*
I cannot slake my thirst.
*
I make art instead.
*
It is as sweet as any water.
*
Namaste.

A perfect vision, both image and words. Loved it.
This is very mysterious. I wish I could watch you create this work, but I suppose that's done down in the batcave, carefully guarded....
so interesting, thank you
Wonderfully serene. I'd pray to that Lady.
Lydia-
Thank you! Glad you came by.
Melissa-
There's no secret, although there IS a Bat Cave!
I just play with mostly found images and layer them and collage them, etc. until it speaks to me in a deep way and then I stop.
Although I can't really stop.
Mim-
I'd pray to her to. I think I will.

She is so otherworldly. She makes my heart hurt. She looks like a nun is supposed to look like. Hope you are feeling better.
New to your blog, Namaste - is that your name? Is it impolite of me to ask?
your writing and the images that accompany it are wonderful.
I have come here through the silence blog. You praise her writing and I praise yours. Thanks.
Elisabeth-
Welcome, welcome! I'm so glad you found this place and that you like it here.
As for Namaste, it is a sanskrit word that is used as a greeting that can be as simple as "I bow to you" or, going a bit deeper, "I honor the God within you", etc.
I use it because it feels good.
Anyway, welcome, and thanks, and I hope we'll see more of each other.

Thanks for the welcome, Tearful. I'll have to get used to addressing you thus - Tearful.
What a great name, very tongue in cheek, I imagine. You don't sound tearful, rather you sound cheerful.
The collage is beautiful--her gibbous face is an icon of calm.
