#livepainting #renegade_808 Happy Leo Season! A view of my festival artworks, An Io (hawk) stealing a baby minor bird and their souls, created live at Space City, then “The Return of the Pheonix”, painted for Falls on Fire, Pheonix Vision Camp, then my Pueo (Owl)… and finally the “Leo”, calmly floating above the fire chaos.

Dear 🐷 Pig, thank you for the inspiration to make a gift for a friend…
@visionaryartbyvajra …upon jumping the gun, I got my first pig. Blessings to the pig spirits and nature beings, and blessings upon the land that we protect from these destructive beasts. May balance and harmony be restored. Enjoy our next potential collab piece Vajra!
