Working through layers, literally and metaphorically.

How are you doing, sweet creative souls?

I’ve been on a healing journey of sorts, and I’ve had to take a step back from social media to give myself space to process things. So, I’m just checking in to give you some creative love.

This layer of painting is inspired by one of the aspects of the female Buddha, Tara, also known as Wisdom Moon and the goddess of compassion and protection.

There are five different colors of Tara (green, white, yellow/gold, blue and red).

This layer represents the Great White Soothing Tara, “like a stack of a hundred full autumn moons, who blazes with the illuminating light of a thousand stars together.”

Beneath this layer you can see a lightening bolt representing Red Swift and Courageous Tara, who gives you the courage to keep your heart open in challenging situations of fear, anger, and righteous rage.

I’ve been secretly recording time-lapse videos of this 22 Day Tara Painting Meditation, and I’ll share the process in due time. If you have the bandwidth and space to join me and Whitney Freya please CLICK HERE to learn more about the 22 Day TARA Painting Meditation Challenge.

Until then, sending you love across the ethers!! xoxo

With love + creative bliss,

Desiree
