Angel of Abundance

"Angel of Abundance", 2010
Watercolor on paper

The first series of Angels came to me around Christmas of 2003. As always when I am painting I opened myself to receiving the "divine gift", not knowing what the universe intended for me to paint. One Angel after the next appeared on the paper. As soon as I felt complete with one painting, the name of the Angel came to me.

The first Angel was the "Angel of Joy"; I vividly remember the blues and golds. The other Angels are
"Angel of Love"
"Angel of Freedom"
"Angel of Passion"
"Angel of Peace"
"Angel of Courage"

"Angel of Grace"
"Angel of Serenity"
"Angel of Hope"
"Angel of Manifestation"
"Angel of Golden Dreams"
"Human Angel"
"Angel of Abundance"

The "Angel of Abundance" came to me this year. "How wonderful!", my heart sang. "Be welcome Here and Everywhere!" She teaches us to open ourselves to the unlimited abundance that is everywhere around us. She reminds us of gratitude! May she bring you manifold blessings on your path and Abundance on all levels.”

"Angel of Abundance" is available as fine art, limited edition (giclee) print on paper.

Print size:

13.25"H x 10.5"W (in inches), limited edition of 100 prints,

$ 99.00 per piece

New Release: "Ascension"

"Ascension"

The vision came to me in November of 2008 in meditation. I saw Earth, our beautiful blue planet, opening and releasing a beam of light that held a deep blue chalice. Out of the chalice three hearts emerged. Within the turquoise double heart, the sun is rising, new sun energy. Above the two flowers in the heart center, there is the Threefold Flame of Love (pink), Wisdom (gold) and Power (blue), releasing the Golden Angelic Being. The Angelic Being, the Human Angel, is free and in total union with All There Is, symbolized by the spiral, the Tree of Life.

This symbolism speaks of a major shift, a shift that has never happened before, the shift into the Sacred Heart. The Human Angel is living from the Heart, constantly residing in the Heart and honoring all creatures and Life itself as sacred. The Human Angel released herself from the cross and shifts from linear thinking into the Sacred Circle of Life, the Spiral. The release is total and the dreamer fully awake and tuned into the Sacred Harmonics of Life.

"Ascension" is the fourth Healing Symbol that I received in meditation, after "Rose of my Heart", "Flame of Transformation" and "Magic Dolphin Star".

It is available as Fine Art (giclee) print in limited edition on paper in the following sizes:

19.25" x 14", limited edition of 100, $ 119
33.5" x 21.75", limited edition of 50, $ 350

The prints are archival, museum quality, numbered and hand-signed by me. Just beautiful!

The Angel Show

I am proud to be part of "The Angel Show" at the Life Force Arts Center Gallery in Chicago, Illinois! I am showing "Angel of Joy", "Angel of Grace" (see left) and "Angel of Hope".
Please, read the press release below!

December 4, 2009 - January 3, 2010

Angels grace the halls of the Life Force Arts Center Gallery (3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago) this holiday season as artists display their interpretations of uplifting, angelic presence. Ranging from traditional to abstract and modern depictions of angels, The Angel Show features paintings, photography, and mixed media from 10 artists from around the country. The show's opening reception is Friday December 4 from 6 - 10 pm. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 www.LifeForceArts.org.

For centuries, Angels have been known as the messengers of God or as a direct manifestation of the Divine. Angels are a phenomenon that cross the boundaries of many religions and spiritual beliefs. They have been known as the keepers of wisdom, the bringers of the word of God, Divine teachers, guardians and guides of humanity. The Angel Show creates new perceptions of these great Beings of Light, and new avenues of connection between the observer and these Messengers of the Divine.

Visitors to the exhibit will see manifestations of angel energy as varied as Sharka Glet's exquisite paintings of the Archangels; pure geometric energy patterns in the digital photography of Fred Casselman and Diogenes; and the driftwood angel sculpture of Pat Otto.

Joan Forest Mage, Executive Director of Life Force Arts Center and curator of the show, says, "Our gallery features art that expresses the spiritual experience of human beings across cultures and time. What better theme to explore during the holidays than angels? Angels sang when Christ was born, but they also appear to people in all types of circumstances. We invite the angels to bring in their high vibrational energy of Light."

Artists featured are:

Fred Casselman www.earthecho.com

ON THE COVER
"Goddess of Awakening"
by Bettina Madini

I am glad to be featured on the cover of the Monthly Aspectarian, a Lightworker Magazine from the Chicago area, with my painting "Goddess of Awakening". Please, read below.

"This painting has a very rich symbolism referring to depictions of the Goddess in ancient cultures. The center of the painting is the Goddess, here depicted as Kwan Yin. She is the Goddess of Mercy and Compassion.

The goddess is seated on her throne made from ancient stone. The waters underneath the throne are the “Waters of Life” and symbolize the continuous flow of life and the final healing of the emotions. The dragonfly is a symbol for transformation and the magic in life, the miracle that happens in the Now. The twinkling lights of its transparent wings symbolize to me delicate strength and transparent power. The material world, symbolized by the jewels above the Goddess, is breaking apart and the light is beaming through. From the ‘I AM Presence’ or the Higher Self emanates the droplet as the symbol for the moment of awakening or self realization."

Tapestry of Dreams

Beautiful Gifts from the Heart

I am glad to be back at the Madison Holiday Market at the Alliant Center this year and invite you to my booth #114 where I will be happy to show you my beautiful creations.

Some people describe me as an "angelic artist", others as a "visionary artist". My paintings come from an inner realm, either in meditation or just in the moment while I am painting. I will be showing angels and visionary paintings in watercolor and acrylic.

What a wonderful time to dwell in color and pick the perfect gifts for yourself and for loved ones. I invite you to browse my booth and choose from a wide selection of framed and unframed pieces of art in different sizes and for all budgets, for different tastes, be it for the wall or the side board, your desk or your kitchen table. On the left, you see "Angel of Hope".

As you can imagine, I am currently in intense preparations for the show and adding the final touches to this unique item for you. I created a new line of paintings that I call my "Art Heart Collection". They are precious original paintings painted onto heart shaped canvas that can be hung on your wall or in your Christmas tree or any space you would like to give this creative Touch of a Heart. See on the right "Golden Angel".

My paintings are cherished by many for their healing and inspirational qualities and can be found in corporate and private collections in Europe and in the United States.

In addition to my paintings, I will show my wearable art, unique, hand knitted accessories for today's Goddesses! They are beautiful, warm and one-of-a-kind. You will for sure not walk by unnoticed! I will show you my "Goddess wraps", "Goddess hats" and "Goddess mittens", for you to pick.

Please, visit my website www.EarthAngelProductions.com and my online gallery at www.Earthangelgallery.etsy.com for a preview of my creations.

I am looking forward to seeing you next weekend in Madison and to share my inspiring art with you!
