Indwelling – a soulful birch painting

“Indwelling” is an invitation to recognize our own inner guiding force, our soul, as well as to recognize and honour that Life Force in others.

Standing tall and strong in the fiery colours of the setting sun, these birch trees reach out as a mirror to our collective evolution and growth in body, mind & spirit.

With their textured spiral grooves, they remind us of our connectivity with the divine, spiralling from the outer ego (the outside world) into the inner soul (cosmic awareness and enlightenment).

Can you spot the 2 words carved into the pumice just above the stone?

“I AM” – the metaphysical name of the spiritual Self, as distinguished from the human self. It’s the indwelling God: our connection to the Divine Mind, our ascension into Christ Consciousness.

No matter the intensity of the world around us, we can always find within that connection to our True Self, to Source.

The pumice (lava stone dust) used for the highly textured trees adds emotional calmness and grounding energy to the piece.

The Lapis Lazuli stone in the tree on the left has been a symbol of honour, gods, power, spirit and vision throughout the ages. It is still a universal symbol of wisdom and truth.

Does this forest alive in complimentary colours speak to you?
