Artist's Description
The Morrigan, ancient goddess of the land, of fertility and death, became associated in more modern times with war. In triple aspect she was accompanied by Nemain (Frenzy), Macha or Badbh (Battle Crow). In her war aspect she appeared over the battlefield, inciting the warriors to become crazy with war-lust, and thus, causing their own demise. The Morrigan was not death herself, she was the harbinger of death, and so the Ban-Shee or the Washer at the Ford, became associated with her. She is the Kali of the Irish pantheon, the Dark Mother to whom we must respect deeply.
The Morrigan, represents the dark aspect that we all experience and possess. Everything emerges from the dark, the child from the womb, the day from night, and The Morrigan's power exists within this place of potentiality. We also end the cycle by returning to the dark, day gives way to night, our bodies return to the earth, and so The Morrigan blesses us by releasing us from her realm and calls us back when it is...

This is superbly done. I admire all the elements and symbolism placed in this artwork involving The Morrigan. As a Goddess I am very familiar with I was instantly taken when I saw this by the way she was portrayed. Beautiful thank you!!!

I love your work DoAn and particularly this piece. Reminds me of Dali's work. I'm just exploring my unconscious mind using meditation processes, and mythology is also becoming an important part of my practice, so it is encouraging to find a fellow traveler! Can you explain a bit more about the meditation process and your materials? Will love to see more as you progress. Cheers, Martyn Fox.
Antony Galbraith replied:
Thanks Martyn! Dali, wow! Perhaps it is that surreal, inner world quality that you are connecting to. I like to use water media, particularly ink and watercolors. I find that they are the most receptive to intuitive painting, while still satisfying my interest in technique.
