Tara Pillows

A mandala with the mantra of the Green Tara in Tibetan script.

The Māori people were the original settlers of Aotearoa (New Zealand). Their culture and history is rich and beautiful, and to this day is an important part of New Zealand's culture. Their legends around the creation of the world and this beautiful land have always captured my imagination. A Hei Matau is a bone or greenstone depiction of the Hook of Maui. Māori legend holds that the North Island of New Zealand was once a huge fish that was caught by the great mariner Maui using only a woven line and a bone hook. Legend holds that the shape of Hawke Bay is that of the hei matau, which caught in the fish's side. For the Māori, the hei matau is taonga (a cultural treasure). It represents not only their land, but also prosperity, fertilit...

Self portrait of sorts....I was thinking about all the children's portraits I've done where I've given them wings, and how that has always been a dream of mine, both literally and figuratively speaking. Ever since I was a child, in my dreams, whenever things turn bad, I always fly myself off to safety. I was thinking of how both my girls have a portrait in their bedrooms of them, as fairies in a fantasy world, done by me, and how I hope that whenever they feel low in their lives, whenever they doubt their dreams can ever come true, that looking at their portraits of them with wings will remind them that ...

She embodies beauty, compassion, and divine serenity. Her name means "star" in Sanskrit. Green Tara, surrounded by a celestial mandala design, symbolizing spiritual awakening, inner peace, and compassion. She is a powerful feminine force in both Buddhism and Hinduism. A bodhisattva. This depiction includes tribal accents with a more diverse artist interpretation.

I felt rather non-specifically inspired today, chomping at the bit to create something but not sure what. I took this photo of a tunnel a few weeks ago, as we were driving through it, and hadn't been sure how I was going to use it, only that I was dying to do something with it. It took a bit for this to come together, umpteen layers as usual, but here it is! :) Canon Powershot A480 P&S for all images; all resources used my own.

I'm experimenting with something a little different at the moment, using works on paper rather than photography, or, in some cases, as well as photography. This one is a composite of a chalk pastel drawing and a roller ball drawing, both my own, combined in Photoshop Elements 2.0.

"Home page featured art!!":http://www.redbubble.com/people/home/works/8586908-imagine-11-march-2012 I was in one of those dreamy moods I guess..... :) I've found myself coming across the odd stock photo of a model that just inspired an image in my head immediately, something that needed to be created just to get it out of my head. The original photo of this model was one of them, so as has been happening from time to time lately, I relaxed my "no stock" policy and got creative.... This image was created using Elements 2.0, using my own photo of Lake Taupo for the backdrop, my own Apophysis fractals for the moons, standard PSP brushes for the stars and stock by...

My piece "Something Fishy":http://www.redbubble.com/people/taralemana/art/3371733-2-something-fishy/ is one of my most popular pieces ever. Nonetheless, I keep looking at it and feeling increasingly unhappy with the technical side of it; I see flaws in it every time I look, and often wished I'd been more skilled at Photoshop when I did it. I've always wanted the eye to be more "watery" and the fish to look more like it was actually *in* the eye, not just stuck on top of it. I also felt the original fish was a tad angular as a result of my lacking blending skill...
