My intention for this painting was to reclaim my body, to love my body as it is, to become embodied fully with Love. Jane led us on a shamanic journey where I reclaimed those soul fragments that had become entangled in the sea weed of the dark depths of trauma and pain. I freed them and they swirled around me and rejoined me, making me whole as I was when I was starlight. I rescued myself through the power of Spirit and Love and paint and canvas. I was the Selkies and the Mer-Woman and the spirit mer-maids. The Sea Dragon and Sea Snail bore witness to my reclamation transformation and I was healed.
