Karen Payton Art

Be love now, be here now, blessings and love

This celebration of Baba Ram Dass is made from old textiles that have been dyed, stitched and infused with love and present moment awareness. The book Be Here Now, is a treasure to me. I pick it up all the time to feel centered and connected. This imagery came to me in a vision as a way of showing my love and gratitude for his work. ​

Based on my original fabric portrait of our queen, Stevie.

For the gypsies that remain…. Her face says freedom With a little fear I have no fear I have only love She sings of love and spells and magical ideas. She twirls and stomps and spreads her lacy wings in a beautiful embrace of gypsy spirit. I created Stevie with hand dyed fabric that has been colored and stitched together with blessings of love and gratitude for all she has brought to us.

Maybe it’s because I live in the Conejo Valley or maybe it’s because “White Rabbit” from Jefferson Airplane plays on repeat in my head or it could be because rabbits are my spirit animal. For whatever reason, I felt called to make a groovy rabbit. Original is made entirely from hand dyed fabric, stitches and loads of love.
