Artist Acknowledgment

Hi Leigh-Ann — Very beautiful piece you posted on April 22. I wanted to take a moment to explain the name suggestion I posted — Eternal Gift. The painting contains a blue sphere, which invokes the idea of a planet, but most of the imagery is senior to the sphere, which communicated to me that it is free of any mundane confines. Hence the term “Eternal.” Since it has beauty that contains creativity, rather than a randomly beautiful manifestation like the Horsehead or Crab Nebulae, it means there the source was a creative intelligence. This is conveyed with the word “Gift” — an offering by a sentient being to another sentient being. Wonderful work! Thanks for posting! M.D.O.

Dreamscape - Eternal Gift

Imagination, its realization, it’s an artist’s gift, and ILIA expresses her imagination beautifully. M.A.S.

Spring Love Comments

Your Dreamscapes are unbelievably aesthetic! I don’t know how you create these, but they are really, truly a work of art. I can think of many classical musical pieces that could be played while viewing these – your dreamscapes are soothing and pleasing to the soul, as it were. They’re just gorgeous, and I’m utterly impressed with what they communicate. I’ll be looking at them many, many times. L.T.

Dreamscape Acknowledgement

I saw a child’s marble full of real fish, gracefully entering and sweeping, curving away, a real ocean in a crystaline globe. Then I was moved by the tiny stars in the marble’s infinite sky, then realized I needed to dust my computer screen — no stars! Oh well. Mainly impressed by the way what seem to be streaks of energy move into and out of more solid forms, suggesting whales, dolphins, eels, etc. D.B.

Dreamscape Comment

Your intention comes through beautifully. A.F.

Thank you, you beautiful artist!!! L.S.

Thank you - art

“This is the first time I have been excited about having something working for me. I have been approached so many times with phony or should we say ‘money making deals with less than integrity’. I can’t function that way….. I’m so excited that this is all I think, dream and pray about…I’m sure, that I’m sure, that I’m sure that this will be a successful venture for me….Thank you so much….” S.L.
