"Hanuman," a tapestry by Savitri
Responding to a call from all of nature, Lord Hanuman, in an earlier age not unlike our own, flies through the night sky, bearing the healing herb mountain in his right hand, to join forces with the Goddess of the Crescent Moon. It seems that a demon king is compelled beyond hope to destroy the oceans, the land, and all life.

"Ganesha," woven by Savitri
an artist's journeyI’ve recently inserted the keystone into the archway I’ve been building over the last fifty years. The blocks chiseled and carved from years of study and inner work, the mortar a mixture of sand and clay from the countries I’ve lived in, the people I’ve known.
Now I walk back and forth under the archway, a bit in awe, that with Mother's Grace I have indeed set the wedge-shaped stone at the top, in the center, the stone that allows all the bricks to rise into an arch and form a solid portal. The metaphor of keystone is the story of how this mix in me of artist, writer, astrologer, monastic, spiritual seeker, psychological counselor, hospice volunteer, and traveler, finally coalesces. |
