What a strange and splendid sight

Saffron Craig - Wednesday, September 03, 2008
These are some of the drawings that I have been working on. They are on a screen and I should be seeing them by Friday. 
I chose to show you these drawings because there is a lovely story about how they came to me. 
I was in my mediation class at Perfect Unison in Curl Curl on the Northern Beaches in Sydney and I visualized or channeled  a huge elk coming though the ancient  forest, one which human beings had not stepped foot on.
The elk said to me "what a strange and splendid sight".
I sketched him right away and redrew him for a few hours until I captured the essence of the way he appeared to me. So this is very special to me. Will let you know as soon as the fabric is available.
It will be  a splendid sight indeed!

It look great. It remind me the cartoon Princess Monoke from Miyazaki.
