Why did I label this post "A Witch". When I painted the above, it was as if I were seeing through the eyes of a child. Later on, I was asked a few times if I were a witch. At the time of the painting, back in June of 2007, I began going outside and planting my feet in the ground and "absorbing the earth's energy". It was very cleansing for me. As if, once again, I could see "me" through the eyes of a child. As far as "a witch", all I know is that I smudge white sage when my neck gets tensed. I learned, being part Cherokee, that the Indians would burn this sage to remove negative energy. Seeking my heritage, I suppose, makes one a witch? Yet, for me, all I know, is that I do this to clear the space, balancing positive/negative energies.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/24/video-palin-shown-praying_n_128873.html

As she spun, rings and rings were spinning off of her painting the earth. Many colors began flying throughout the air. Suddenly, she was naked. She looked into the water and there, she found her love. Now, to find the prince…
