SINANN STIRRING; & AURORA RISING

Sinann Stirring (5-13-10 10007v2), above, is from a very old photo just re-visioned today. Sinann is a Celtic Goddess of the River Shannon. (I've recently started a hefty Jungian study that's based in Celtic mythology.)

And since once again I was not able to keep from further exploration, I made another version (immediately above) in warmer colors. I was curious to see how that change would effect the feel of the pic. It's called Aurora Rising (5-13-10 10007v3), and She's more familiar to me, a Roman Goddess of the dawn.

BTW, this sleeping/dreaming clay head used to be in a garden on our grounds. I've photos of it salted throughout my folders taken in various lights and with different plants and other objects around it. She was always a tough subject. Still is whenever I stumble across one of the photos and work on it again.
