~*~*~Sol + Luna~*~*~
The twin souls~ Sol+Luna, Sun+Moon. This piece was created with devotion in honor of the two celestial bodies that nurture our Earth. Providing sustenance, warmth, the coming + going of the tide, and light in a universe of vast darkness. This piece is perfect for an altar space, creative space, desk, or table. 
 
This vintage frame (~1960's) was hand-selected and re-purposed by me. Glass is hand-cut for this specific design and was carefully and lovingly put together to create this unique piece. All plants and wings are glued directly onto glass and then covered with another piece of glass for protection and shine!
 
This piece contains fern, friendship sage, lavender, red rose, German statice flower, hydrangea, queen Anne's lace, goldenrod, blanketflower, yellow rose, gerbera daisy, sunflower, various wildflowers, goldleaf, Polyphemus silkmoth wings (Antheraea polyphemus), and Giant swallowtail butterfly wings (Papilio cresphontes~this is the largest butterfly in north America!). 
 
This butterfly and moth was purchased from a sustainable butterfly sanctuary. These beautiful creatures were collected after passing away naturally, and are now honored and cherished forever.

~Each piece that I make is created in an intentional, devotional space. I sit with the plants and create whatever my inner vision directs me to. This is my sacred practice, and it is suffused with magic and love!~
