Brigid, whose name means "fiery arrow", was beloved of the Irish Celts, and survived Christian conversion by becoming a Catholic Saint who is still revered to this day. For the ancient Irish, Brigid was the goddess of all things lofty and elevated, such as high-rising flames, upland areas, wisdom, perfection, intelligence, creativity, poetic eloquence, blacksmithing, healing, mystical knowledge, and warfare. She was the daughter of the Father god, the Dagda of the Tuatha De Danann. Some stories suggest that her mother was The Morrigan, the dark goddess, and with her birth, she brought light from the void.
She was considered a solar goddess, and stories of her birth recount her rising from the earth into the sky along with the rising sun with rays of light emanating from her head. With every step she took flowers sprouted and birds sang and soared in the air. Though she was associated with the sun, it was not the physical sun she represented, but the healing energy associated...

Wow, you have a wonderful imagination!
Antony Galbraith replied:
Thanks Penny. I don't think of the paintings as coming from imagination, however. They emerge before me through intense communication with the energies and concepts I am exploring in the painting. I feel more like a medium than an artist at times.

I like your painting style, and the message you bring across every time. The description really helped me to know about 'Brigid'.
Antony Galbraith replied:
Thanks Usha! I am happy that my work speaks to you.

Thanks everyone for the support. After I complete one of the paintings in the goddess series, I think, ah now that I have figured out what I am doing, the next one will be much easier. No such luck! Each painting presents a new set of challenges, forces me to dig deeper inside and examine the elements/energies that inspired ancient peoples so much to personify them. It has become a wonderful adventure and I am looking forward to the next exploration: Spring, Air, and Rebirth.
