August - The Feast of First Fruits

August starts with the grumbling roar of summer, and within just a few days, a hint of Fall breeze can be felt through open windows in the early hours of the morning.
Many of us with European ancestry celebrate this harvest with our own sacred traditions. Lughnasadh or Lammas Day Festivals are known to some, but August's offerings can strike a fire of gratitude within anyone who comes to the realization of the magnitude of this precious time, either in appreciation of the yields released to them because of the physical hard work they previously put in to planting and growing, but even for those who, for whatever reason, yearn to show gratitude to this beautiful planet in some way. 

Harvesting grains and crops of corn and wheat bring grains and breads to the tables,  fruits and berries are in abundance for our enjoyment, while leaving us the seeds in the ground for the next year.

This is the life cycle of living things. This is the magic of August.

This original illustration is also available as an 8" x 10" PDF download to print yourself! Since 2012, creating prints of my original paintings has always been important to me to make sure my work can reach many audiences at affordable prices. I feel everyone should be able to have the choice to fill their homes with artwork that has grabbed their attention, perhaps reflects their unique taste and lifestyle, and in the case of my work, maybe even conjure up some feelings of magic, myth and wonder like it does for me when I create it.  For that reason, I offer digital prints of my work whenever possible, including this painting. I retain the rights to this painting's image and will  continue to use it for prints and other purposes. Thank you for your understanding and your support of the Arts!
