Mural, Part 2

Bliss Yoga Mural

Yes, I know, it’s unbe-leaf-able.

Day 3 (and a bit into Day 4) found branches budding.  Margo had concern at first, “I have a dead tree on my walls,” she thought to herself.

But not to fear, what a difference a little foliage will make.  She was relieved as the leaves started to go up, rounding out the experience of the form.  Funny, the process our art can take, it can be like a rollercoaster at times, even though you know there’s gonna be a loop or too, there’s still the actual experience of it separating all thoughts from your head for a second and leaving you with a blast of air to your face.  Call it refreshing, then.

And I started her…

Yogini, taking it all in with peace peace peace…  I had been watching some episodes of Rome, thanks to my fiancé, and the costuming there made its way in.

Later this summer will find color on the walls.  Here’s to things to come…  Cheers.

About Benjamin Allen Ellis

Some phoenix mythologies talk of the soul's hierarchy in terms of birds. The eagle being our pinnacle, the phoenix right below, constantly burning and dying and rebirthing in order to find itself born eagle. Since 2000, and my first public art show, I've used the Phoenix as a rallying cry for myself to take hold of what I want and keep 'rebirthing' until I get it. After eight years, it was time to consciously move on up. Hey - I'm goin' eagle.
