“ The flowers of Elysium“, Oil and acrylic on panel, 16“ x 16“. I am painting for the OverUnderworld series. All the paintings contain stories from mythology. I was interested to find out that in Elysium, also known as the fair Isles, where the heroes go after they die, He said to have gardens and flowers. I wondered what underworld flowers would look like…#suzanneedminster #saltworkstudio #artatthesource #abstractexpressionism #abstractpainting #underworld #overunderworld #sofassantarosa #elysium #persephone #hades

Small metaphoracard collages. Like thoughts they multiply. 5“ x 8“ on mat board. They are a little different than most collage cards because I do an abstract painting on the background first, so any images have to interact with the painting. I think it’s always best to paint first before using others appropriated images. You have to get your own mark down, then maybe the guards will let you steal from the great weird Image library of the World. ... #saltworkstudio #metaphoracards #suzanneedminster #collagework #collagecollective #collagepainting #sofasantarosa #oracledeck #oraclereadersofinstagram #oraclecards

I’m thinking back to some of my trips during 2020. We called this one the dystopian summer vacation: wildfires in California, wildfires in Colorado, a heat wave over the whole Southwest, a pandemic, more California wildfires as we returned. This ancient art reminds us that every culture has gone through its problems. Still, some managed to make a mark that remains. The petroglyphs always inspire me. #Saltworkstudio #petroglyphs #utahroadtrip #heatwave #nativeamericanart #SuzanneEdminster #artbrut #primitiveartist #ritualart #bigmagic #creativityfound #kunstgallerie #traveljournalism
