This piece is a tribute to my experiences with mysticism and spirituality. I feel strongly connected to the earth and the Shamaness is performing a ceremony of light with the moon along the powerful shores of Gitchi-Gumi (Lake Superior). The Shamaness is wearing in a soft deerskin dress with sacred designs of turtles, spirals and a red ribbon for protection is tied in her hair with a feather. The feminine energy of the moon is emanating through out the piece and the Shamaness is in communion with the environment around her. The forest in the background is alive with the trees dancing in the moonlight celebrating life and even the basalt volcanic shore is shimmering with energy. I spend a lot of time on the northern shore of Lake superior in Minnesota.
