Just Born (Sacred Garden)

Pencil on Rives BFK paper.

Just Born is part of the series Sacred Garden. This drawing of a mother holding her newborn baby —surrounded by leaves and vines and life— is inspired by the sacred moment of birth. Not all of us are able to have a natural birth, so I drew this for all moms who wish to re-imagine the moment they hold their newborn baby surrounded by all the bounty of nature, which holds mother and child, sustaining them, and protecting them as they are both born into their new life.

This image is pure love. As I see it I feel an abundant current of love in my heart chakra. Tanya thank you so much for creating it. It's magical and soothing!

Thank you so much Coraz ón!!! I was thinking of Christmas, the New Year, Mother Earth, Time, how we can hold our own future in our arms to nurture our own growth. Only Love can help us grow!
