My painting of Gaia came in phases. Today, I am finally revealing to your the final version of it, which I feel will not be altered anymore.

I have not posted in a while. Life got busy and steemit had to go on secondary road. I also feel that quite a few good people are leaving the platform. So is Steemit still a thing of future? Tell me what you think, I'd be delighted to hear your view.

Steemit future aside, I just came from biking after the rain and I am filled with fresh energy of Gaia, so I felt like posting something, and checking if I still have followers here which will appreciate it :)

As I said, "Gaia- Sacrifice" came in phases. The first version was born 2 years ago, and she was very naked....and quite frankly quite intimidating, especially for women who walked in my studio. I watched reaction of many such women during a public open door event, and felt like Gaia is not meant to be that naked.

Original version of Gaia 2017:

So I covered her up in clothes of of plants. That made her more appealing to our brainwashed society that fears nudity.

2018 version of Gaia:

As you can see, the sky section was not really done, but I felt no inspiration to finish that up until quite recently.

The final stroke of inspiration was given to me about a month ago, when I intensified my meditation practice and lessened my "social outside times".

Suddenly I knew what Gaia needs and it took me only couple of weeks to make her complete, so that I could finally declare:

It took me 2 years to finish this painting of Gaia, patiently waiting for the final download in meditation. It came to me a month ago and I carried out the final brushstrokes last night. My heart is in bliss and I am filled with joy by the final result (thank you Universe! ❤️). New Gaia has lots of enhancements that now make her complete: Life Giving mandala, new Sun necklace made of genuine gold, falcon has been re-aligned with the eclipse (falcon represents Omniscience = full opening of third eye), new sky and pretty much all plants and flowers covering here have been repainted. Obviously this painting has a story to tell and every element in it has a meaning. I told that story few times. Maybe one day you’ll hear it in your heart. The story of our beautiful mother Gaia💚🌈 So much gratitude Whoever acquires her in the future (subject to my own intuitive scrutiny), I will consider him/her a lucky human 🍀 Peace.

Final result:

The more attentive ones of you might ask: Why is there the word "Sacrifice" in the painting name?

Well, that becomes quite obvious once you know the story of Gaia, and every element in the painting .

But that, my friends, is another story for another time.

Thank you for your support,

And remember Gaia in your actions and thoughts today

Much Love
