Woman Creates - ACEO from the Artist as Vessel Series


Just listed on Etsy:



This piece is from my "Artist as Vessel Series" exploring the source and process of creativity. This series finds the artist as a container through which the boundless river of Divine Creativity flows. My poetic inspiration:


Within this earthen vessel are bowers and groves, and within it is the Creator:
Within this vessel are the seven oceans and the unnumbered stars.
The touchstone and the jewel-appraiser are within;
And within this vessel the Eternal soundeth, and the spring wells up.
Kabir says: "Listen to me, my Friend! My beloved Lord is within."

-Kabir


For those of you who don't know what an ACEO is:

ACEO is an acronym which stands for Art Cards Editions and Originals. ACEOs are 3.5 inches (89 mm) x 2.5 inches (64 mm) and are a great, affordable way to collect original artwork. I started doing them recently for fun and as a way to make my work more affordable for people.

Don't forget to checkout my blog Art of the Spirit on art & spirituality.

Good luck with your ACEOs. A lot of people at WWAO do them. Are you a member?

I haven't delved into that aspect of marketing yet. But I think I'll stay with prints and paintings, for now--a challenge enough!
