When a project comes to an end, when the design is finished, I can’t describe it at all. The process was so intense, so long, so beautiful and at the end you are almost a bit wistful, we talked so much about it, rejoiced, together with Christine, the nature artist and Eva, who also contributed so many ideas.
All the important design stages, from Simone`s 1st drawing (idea sketch) to Christine`s watercolor and drawing and Eva`s digitizing stages can be found summarized in the blog images.
The pictures of Eva are beautiful in the box! Eva has adapted the images to the elements of nature. Those would be Earth, Sun Moon and Icelandic Moss.
And so the story is “The Power of the Flock”.
A place full of peace, the flock. A glittering moon invites you to dream, what phase of the moon is it right now? Two of the flock take their time here in simple being. Just want to rest, in themselves, in the light of the glittering moon.
Two horses are dedicated to the element of the sun, they fill up the energy, the light, the glittering golden and orange sun as a symbol of power and energy, which invites the two horses in their action. They play in the light of the powerful sun.
Under a glittering arch, two of the herd are very close to each other, feel is all they want at the moment.
Suddenly a loud bang in the distance, is danger lurking here? All of a sudden, everyone jumps up, gathers in the same place, in the middle of the pasture, as if someone had shouted “NOW” loudly.
The power of the flock is cohesion, connection between heaven and earth, without the spoken word. Even if it just wants to be on its own, it is always part of a larger whole, connected to the elements and the herd. Your horse is never alone, it stands just like in front of a protecting mountain range, in the giving power of the herd.
Each one alive in itself, by what it is! Among themselves like a colorful mosaic, something that belongs together in full beauty, each character takes its place here. Every horse is what it is, just right and therefore such an important part of the big picture.
