What is this Listing?
This listing is Stage 4, Part 1 of my October Shop Updates. This listing is for a Print of one of my Original Energetic Abstract Art pieces. My preferred medium is Fluid Acrylic Paint. There prints available for 3 different pieces, and each piece has 3 different options from which you can select for purchase. The 3 pieces to choose from in this listing are “Enchanted Forest”, “The Spark”, and “Bleeding Heart”. The three print options to choose from are Giclee Fine Art Print, E-Surface Print with Lustre Coating, and Metallic Paper with Lustre Coating and Linen Finish.
Each print is a 5x7 inch Print with an 8x10 Frame & Mat that has a cut out opening to show most of the print.
I first chose to include these 3 pieces in my first batch of Art Prints that are available. I first listed these 3 prints available with matting and archival bags, but now, I also want to include Framed Print Options for these 3 pieces as well.
But first, I must note that each print is a copy of one of my original pieces of art! I retain the right to use the image of my original work in any way I may choose in the future. I am planning to create an oracle card deck using my original artwork and their stories at some unknown future time.
The Prints and The Story of the Original Piece
I want to tell you some stories about the Original Pieces that I selected to offer for my first set of prints. Please read the following with an open mind. If I sound like a crazy person to you, that is okay. You can still purchase my art for the simple fact that you like it. However, through writing the stories about each of these pieces, I have realized that I am also working on information for the eventual booklet that I want to create for an Oracle Card Deck that I want to create someday out of my Original Art pieces.
I have no idea how long it will take me to create the storybook to go with the cards. I have no idea how long it will be before I eventually design a Deck using my art. Yet, it has been a dream of mine for years to create my own deck. Creating these prints and writing the stories for the cards is just the beginning of my work towards creating the deck.
“Enchanted Forest” (EF)
The first piece I chose when I added prints to my shop is “Enchanted Forest”. This piece is one of my favorites from this year. It reminds me of an Enchanted Forest where lots of Magical Beings live, just like out of a fairy tale. Sometimes, it seems like there is a whole world in this piece that just hasn't fully shown itself to me yet.
I created this piece at a time when I was having difficulty with anxiety. I decided to take my anxiety and feelings of being stuck or trapped and channel those energies into a painting. I used this energy to help me select the colors and technique. I wanted to pour all the negative emotions out of me and onto the canvas, so that I could feel better. It worked!
I noticed the next day that one of my hairs had gotten stuck in the piece. In the past, I have been upset over things getting stuck in my paintings, but I realized in this moment that it was meant to be there. I realized that it was my little piece of DNA needed to seal the energy into the painting and to keep it out of me. Again, it worked!
In the past, I would have tried to pry it out and then would have been frustrated with the spot left behind in the painting. This time, I just thanked my guides for helping me. I felt better, so I just left it and moved on to the next one!
I chose this piece for my first selected print for my shop because I feel like it is a symbol of my power of creating Psychic Energetic Art. It is my intention to sell the prints of this one with the hope that this piece will help you release some of your anxiety, or whatever difficult emotions or feelings you are currently experiencing.
I hope that any time you have these things come up again, that you can gaze into the piece and feel a sense of calm as you transfer your more “negative” energies into the piece. Just like real trees, it is full of Positive Energy to help take those Negative Energies out of you and transmute them into something Good or Positive.
By spending time with trees again on vacation recently, I learned that when we give them things we want to get rid of, they can use it to heal themselves. When they do this, they are sending back to us what they need healed and that is what we use in healing ourselves. It's a reciprocal interaction. It's just like how they use our Carbon Dioxide and give us Oxygen. That is just what I intended for this painting to do when I created, and it works for me.
The Magic of this Forest is that it can help you find a positive spin on whatever is bothering you; but only if you are truly open to it. If you are a non-believer, the magical beings of the forest may choose to not help you.
If all of this sounds absolutely crazy to you, but you find the piece interesting or appealing in any way, I still urge you to buy a print! You don't have to view it in the same way I do. That is the beauty of Art! Everyone can see something completely different when they look at a piece of art. That is why I particularly love Abstract Art; there is so much more freedom to see the piece from your own perspective.
“The Spark” (TS)
The Original of this piece no longer exists. As soon as I painted this one, I dropped it and ruined it. I was lucky to have been recording for a YouTube video at the time, so I was able to crop a screenshot out of it, so that this piece could live on forever in digital form.
It was the first time I attempted a Dutch Pour. I prefer to not have negative space in my Dutch Pours, so maybe it's not a real Dutch Pour, but I used the hair dryer for this one. I was so happy, and then I was trying to move it to another room to dry, and I dropped it.
I can see a face in the yellow on the right side, and it reminds me of a spark that comes off the top of fire. I also discovered that I really enjoyed creating paintings with my hair dryer, so it kind of sparked my interest in exploring more into a new-to-me at the time painting technique.
At the time, I had been painting mostly only Flip Cup paintings, but after I tried and liked this technique, I quickly began finding the courage to trying other techniques. Since then, I have tried several techniques, and I am always trying to figure out different things to experiment with when it comes to my art. I guess you can say it really sparked my creativity.
I chose this one because I feel like it is a symbol of creativity, experimentation, and finding joy in new things. It is my hope that this piece can bring the new energy that you are longing for. I hope that if you choose to purchase this print, that it will bring you new ideas, creativity, happiness, and renewed energy.
If you see none of this in this piece, that is okay too! Art is unique in that we all view art with our own histories within us that no one else has experienced. Therefore, what we focus on, what we see, and what we feel from viewing a piece can be completely different from each other. Whatever you see in this piece, I hope you like it.
” Bleeding Heart” (BH)
Remember how I said that I dropped “The Spark” right after painting it? Well, when I dropped that one, I was really upset. I got stuck in the sadness and the frustration with myself over ruining my first Dutch Pour that had turned out so well. I can get a little dramatic and can overreact sometimes. Sometimes my emotions are too big, and they spill out.
Once I took a few minutes to mourn the loss of “The Spark”, I decided to just pour over top of it and try again. I had fun with the Hair Dryer, so I figured I might as well choose different colors and try again. When I did, “Bleeding Heart” was the result.
Looking back at this, it is probably one of the first clear examples of me creating Energetic Art and I didn't even realize it at the time. What came out not only reminds me of an Abstract Valentine Heart, but it also reminds me of an abstract human heart in the middle. It claimed the title Bleeding Heart right away.
I didn't even realize it at the time, but I took my sadness and frustration from ruining one piece, and I channeled that energy into creating a new piece that was equally as mesmerizing and meaningful to me.
This piece is a symbol to me that sometimes feeling our emotions out loud sometimes is for the best. If I had just brushed off the dropped painting and forgotten about it, I may not have been inspired to try again, and I may not have channeled my Bleeding Heart onto the canvas. It is okay to be the type of person that feels things deeply. It is good to experience and release our emotions.
We are sometimes quick to seek the things that make us happy, but we shy away from processing the things that make us sad. This sort of imbalance is not good for us, it can cause us to hold onto those emotions in our body, and the longer we hold on the worse it can make us feel. If we can get it out of us somehow, then we are able to make more room for the things that bring us joy later.
I chose this piece for prints because I wanted to remind people that it is okay to be a Bleeding Heart at times. It can be necessary to really feel and heal our darker more “negative emotions” through processing them, we heal ourselves and make room for better things to come in.
My hope for this piece is that it brings you the courage to acknowledge all parts of yourself, heal the difficult parts, and to make room for more love to enter. The Bleeding Heart is your reminder that it is okay to be sad sometimes. Know that you are loved. Greet yourself with compassion. Open your soul to healing by fully expressing your true self; all of yourself. This piece is a piece for healing and support for dealing with difficult things.
Or on the other hand, if none of this resonates with you, you could also be drawn to this piece because you are generally cheerful and happy. You may be the type of person who is always quick to help others. You find joy in being of service to others.
You are a healer, and you may be an empath or sensitive. You may need the energy of this piece to help you cleanse of the sticky residue you pick up from others. You can pick up the negative thoughts, feelings, emotions, or pains from others. You love helping others, but sometimes you need a reboot. Meditate with this piece when you need help cleansing this residue from your aura.
It is up to you to decide which meaning this piece may have for you. I feel like it will also help you open your mind and your heart to being more open to figuring out your life purpose, or perhaps your current purpose or area of focus.
Again, if this story sounds crazy, but you think it is pretty, please still consider purchasing a print!
The Prints
I chose 3 styles of prints at this time. There are other types of prints that I could potentially get in the future, or that I could get if you have a specific request, so if you don't see the type you want in the shop yet, please send me a message, and I can try to work something out for you.
Giclee Fine Art Print
This option is on a thick matte paper with a subtle watercolor texture. The Giclee Prints are detailed vibrant prints. It is different than the Giclee Matte Prints and I selected this option over the matte prints because it seems to be more painting-print-like than the matte ones.
E-surface Paper with Lustre Coating
These are photographic prints with a sheen coating that adds a layer of protection from fingerprints and UV rays to the print. It adds an extra glisten to the print that is different than a glossy print. I chose this option because it seems to have more shine to it than the Giclee Glossy Prints.
Metallic Print with Lustre Coating and Fine Linen Texture
The metallic paper has a beautiful metallic shine that brings extra depth to the print. The lustre finish adds even more shine to it, and the fine linen texture adds a little bit of tiny indentations along the piece that gives it more of a pseudo-canvas look to it.
The Metallic Print with Lustre Coating and Fine Linen Texture option is my personal favorite, but you are free to choose whichever type you like. There are other print options available as well, but I haven't stocked them yet. If you are interested in a different style of print such as Giclee Glossy, Matte, or Semi-Gloss please send me a message and I can probably order it for you.
There are other options with the E-Surface and Metallic Prints too, but the options are just yes or no to Each Lustre and/or Linen Finish to either one. You can have either Paper with or without Lustre and/or Linen Finish. I just don't have them stocked in my shop yet. If you want, I can order it for you, just send me a message to request something different.
If you made it to the bottom of this description, thank you so much for your time and energy that you put into learning about a few of my pieces. Right now, I am thinking that I want to shoot for adding new prints to my shop monthly with new stories about each of the pieces. So, if none of these pieces resonate with you, please check back next month to see what else I add for you.

My Print Sales will run as a Print-on-Demand Service in the way many people run their T-Shirt Shops. I do have a few prints that I have in stock, and my stock will grow as I order some when orders are placed by customers.
Have no fear though, the Printer is super quick; and they always come out perfectly. I keep my processing times from 1-5 days because I am not always at home, but I will almost always be back within 5 business days. If I will be gone longer, I change everything over to Vacation Shipping. The 5 business days allows for me to order your prints immediately, receive them quickly, and send them out to you within one business week. The time it takes for you to receive it after I ship is dependent upon where you are located.
Shipping Policy:
I currently have Free Shipping for the United States & Canada. I am proud to begin offering Worldwide on a trial basis. Based on my minimal research, I have started my Worldwise shipping outside of the US and Canada as a flat $15 to other countries. This price may be adjusted in the future once I gain more experience shipping outside the US. Please be patient with me as I learn through the process of doing as I begin offering sales and shipping worldwide.
Please Note:
I will compare shipping costs to find the most reasonable option taking speed, quality, and time into consideration when choosing how to ship each order. I will not be limiting myself strictly to the shipping companies selected in the listing. It may or may not always be USPS or UPS. I don't have much experience with shipping yet. As my shop grows and I start doing it more, I will be able to adjust to more accurately state what I am using.
Disclaimer:
I retain all rights to future use of the images of my art available for the prints for sale in my shop. I intend to use the stories as I gather enough from this process to create the guide book for an oracle card deck to be made out of my art. I will use the stories that are told through the process of selecting and listing new prints for my shop over time. When I get to enough and feel like I have a nice collection for an oracle card deck, I will edit the stories into a guidebook format and give you words or phrases for each piece for its meaning within the contents of the oracle deck.
Have a Blessed Day!
