This is a skull based on the legend of the Giants of the Ohio and Mississippi River valleys and their magical earthen mounds that are scattered through America’s heartland. The mystic designs vibrate with cosmic energy and lead the viewer into a landscape of myth and mystery. Who were these unknown masters of the spade and basket who piled up thousands of tons of dirt and rocks to transform the face of the earth into a complex network of temples and sacred places? What do these symbols say to us if we meditate upon them and listen to their divine voices? What is this Giant’s skull trying to tell us about our true history and the meaning of the cosmos?
Number 2 in a series of skull paintings based on Legendary and Mythological Native American and Celtic themes. Nondenominational original mystic symbols add a sense of mystery to this painting inspired by the Adena Mound Builders culture.
The Mystic Skulls call to mind the different cultures and legends of skulls of power. Some are adorned with magical symbols and esoteric clues to hidden messages, some are meant to lead the viewer inward to explore the subconscious mind, and some are inclined to alarm and alert the sleeping mind.
Purple and Gold Acrylic paint on double canvas board. Custom Designs accepted.
