One of my favorite ways to spend creative time is collage making. Something about bringing many elements together to form a central theme is very appealing to me. Of course, certain themes show up frequently in my collages and this one is no exception. Birds and eggs are pulled together by a central feminine figure to create "Egg Mother." The sun is also a key component of this collage as it is in our earthly lives. I used bits of astrological data to signify how the universe is a constant that, at times, we do not even notice. The sun rises and sets, tides ebb and flow, the earth continues to spin on its' tilted axis, all with very little notice on our parts.
I enjoyed the process of creating "Egg Mother" and taking time to think of the continual activity of our universe. I will try to pause a little more often to marvel at the wonder of our beautiful world.
