Visionary Artist Statement:
Maura Holden
" In a dense phosphorescent fog I have been searching for things that can never be found: the journals of Adam and Eve; a photographic record of the cities of the interior; a map charting the soul's disasters and renewals; the keys to locked dimensions: the point at the center of everything...
My paintings are a residue of this effort, but they are only shells, fossil imprints around the things I truly meant to give existence to: those lost moments when my identity fell to the ground like a torn dress, and I moved through non-human spheres, with x-ray vision and a compound mind, seeing and being all of those impossible things." Maura Holden

Milliande : The Art of Interpretation
Milliande's Visionary Art Bus Did Stop here because it sparked ...
words that followed the spark are ...........
~ This Drawing really resonated with me, I admire artists who have the ability to translate the visions in their mind onto canvas
~ To me the feminine force of this drawing is powerful yet vulnerably exposed, alone yet deeply connected
~ I enjoyed the simplicity of the pencil medium used and the depth achieved which has has a sinister overtone
~ I see visions in my head by struggle to get them onto paper or canvas to look like what I see ... I feel frustrated when my vivid visions lie unattended in the depth of my brain with no way out to be visible
~I get get inspired by visionary artists who go beyond the boundary of the easily perceived and stretch my imagination to try the same

Milliande : The Art of Interpretation
Milliande's Visionary Art Bus Did Stop here because it sparked ...
words that followed the spark are ...........
~ This is an amazingly surreal artwork
~ To me having just worked on my www.fertilitymoon.com website , this came across as a fertility artwork .
~ I powerfully felt the struggle of women trying to conceive, the fallopian tubes being invaded by unseen forces that lurk behind
~ To me surprise is pictured in the face of the woman staring at her own inability to conceive which seems pictured in a fertility symbol of sorts
~ the fertility symbols of a woman , wide enlarged hips and protuding breasts are often depicted in ancient fertility art works like the Venus of Willendorf
~ this surreal artwork is called The Battle of Fallopia and is painted in egg tempera and oil on panel .
This Artwork Painting is available on

 Note in my Art Journal:
What do I take away from this Visit:
~ trying to use pencil on freezer paper
~ trying to eliminate colour and express depths with just pencil drawings
~ keep on leaping into the unseen
Thanks you to Maura Holden for sharing her Artwork with the World enabling us to stop by ....
