Art & Philosophy by John Glock
-
Code
The remnant of intellect. That which binds and orders the chaos into being. Separating the good from the hateful. The tenet of those who help.
-
Free
Imagination’s domain. Unrestricted by the mundane and the empirical. Equal under the boundaries of human law. Abundant. Limitless.
-
Spirit
The wellspring of intuition. Our reflection upon all forms of knowledge. Invisible connections between us. What breathes meaning into the world we live in.
July’s Art Page: The World Serpent
$5.00
Bold, Beckoning, Becoming…
This month’s offering is a take on a classic Norse mythological symbol. The world serpent holding the earth in its scales. Each section of its body detailed by the mountains, the sea, and the city.
As usual, when a six-year old asks me to draw her favorite animal as a coloring page, I couldn’t just draw any old snake. This is what slithered out of me, and I’m happy to offer it for sale as my first monthly coloring art.
I did my best to blend interesting textures in the details so the more you color, the more things you’ll discover. My hope is that when you’re done coloring, you’ll have a bonafide piece of art to frame or hang on your wall.
It’s been kid-tested and passed, but overall, it’s probably best for adults who have some time on their hands to sit with all the sections.
Here’s hoping the piece speaks as deeply to you as it did to me. Deep in the mystery of the world serpent, you’ll find your harmony.
If you like what’s happening here, please drop by the Tip Jar for a chance to win a hand-drawn illustration. New pieces come up every month.
Thanks for visiting. Check out my store as it builds with new art. Stay safe and stay sane out there.
Love and Peace,
John Glock
