Messenger by Cynthia Lund Torroll
Pencil on Stonghenge paper drawing – ORIGINAL SOLD This was the first of three drawings. I didn’t know there’d be three when I started – and actually, I may have made more than three of these types. You can see the original on this shot along with its sister The Arrival But anyway, this started when I heard a line from a song – “an angel wears no armor” and bam – I saw this in my head. The summer I drew this our basement was invaded by bees – which is what some people had thought was covering this child. Nope. Since this is a circular image, in full it doesn’t lend itself as nicely for a greeting card. I suggest you go to my detail version of it here at my RedBubble portfolio. The cropped version works better as a card. BUT, there are plenty of other ways to have a “Messenger” in your life – some examples here:

In The Beginning There Were Three by Stephen J. Vattimo
Medium : Acrylic on canvas / Size : 4’ x 5’ / Year completed 2002 I painted this illustration to publicly proclaim The Biblical account of a six literal day creation by the holy trinity, to be The true account of the origin of all thing that have been, are now, and will exist. I believe Evolution Theories have many wholes in them and lake sound evidences to declare Evolution as the true account of origin of all matter. I believe school should teach both theories, / and let the student decide which is truth for themselves. / The three figures of light that are holding the hour glass represent the trinity, The Father, The Son, The Holy Spirit, Who together created all thing. The back ground of the paint is suppose to illustrate the trinity created all things from nothing. The hour glass is suppose is to appear to be made of pure gold. / representing a creation with out , corruption, and decay, which would latter be part of the curse the creation would be subjected to be cause of man’s sin. / The top and bottom base of the hour glass, has the icon of the moon and sun six time to represent the six days of creation. / The six spheres floating inside the hourglass represent the six literal day, and what was created on each day. The first day God separated the darkness from the light. This spheres is placed at the bottom of the hourglass because sand in a hourglass always flows down. / The second Day God separated the sky from the sea, this is represented in the sphere located at the bottom right of the hourglass. / The third day God separated the land from the waters. Represented in the top half of the Sphere. The bottom part represent the plant life that was created on the same day. / The fourth day God creates outer-space, every star,and planet. God mentions The sun was created to light the earth by day, and the moon to light the earth by night. This is represented in the sphere located at the top middle of the hourglass. / The fifth Day God created the creatures of the air and the creatures of the water. This is represented in the sphere located in the top right of the hourglass. / The sixth day God created both the land creatures, and man. This sphere is located top left of the hourglass.

Confusion by TaniaLosada
As the magician whose pigeon / has escaped from his hat / As who pointing in play / the gun was fired / Today I feel so / they’re confusion times / An insect in a blank page / a reason of inspiration (...) / Someone whistles a song / clouds don’t let me see the sun / Confusion / they’re confusion times (...) Extract from the song Confusion by 091 rock group View larger is better in this image ;) / I’ve mixed two photos of mine here. One is made in Belate Port of Navarre and the other is the model with the two unbrellas. I took this portrait of my boy in an impersonal scene and later I realized that this scenery was much more moody and poetic… ;P / Canon 400D Feature work in: / - Winner of the Intrigue Challenge of the Mood & Ambience group (September 09) / .The Art of Intrigue (September 09) / Fantasy Fine Art Composites (September 09) / / - JPG Cast-Offs group (September 09) / / - !

Heart Reef © by Vicki Ferrari
Heart Reef © Vicki Ferrari A scan of an original print, taken using a Minolta SLR, back in the early 1990’s. / Heart Reef is located north of Hamilton Island, on the Great Barrier Reef, in North Queensland, Australia. It was named Heart Reef because, and obviously, it looks like a heart! / This photograph was taken from one of my regular chopper rides up on the island. I never got sick of flying in choppers, or seeing the amazing reef from the air! When you are at the Whitsundays, well worth visiting the Reef by helicopter! The view is amazing!

Big Brother is Plugged In by EstherJohnson
Not my usual subject matter. The inspiration for “Big Brother is Plugged In” came to me during a trip to a suburban area in Texas. I was surprised at the number of cameras. At least one on every street corner! Scary! / The outer eye is actually a fractal created in Apophysis 2.08. The Eye was created in Poser 6, the Sky and Ground created in Vue 7 esprit. Post work in Photoshop 2009 The reflection in the eye is of a man in his bathrobe walking out to get the morning paper.

Home Is Where The Heart Is by Tara Lemana
This was my entry for the Yellow Pages Art Awards. The brief was “show us what you love about where you live” on a square-shaped artwork. For me, that is the beach and the view of Kapiti Island. Among other things, of course. The image shows my eye, with an image of a Kapiti beach and Kapiti Island. This entry didn’t make the finals but that’s ok by me, I love it anyway!! :) All resources used my own, taken on my Canon Powershot A480 P&S. Proudly New Zealand-made. :)

Monkey See by Tammera
Self reflection is always dominated by one’s point of view. Each point of view is dominated by circumstance. What exactly does one see when contemplating a reflection of self??

About This Group
More than just a pretty picture
.
Here are some great examples from the group that truly exemplify the term “Symbolism in Art”!
Traditional Photography
“Not So Out of reach” by Jenn Ramirez
PhotoManipulation
“The Visit” WanderingSoul Art
Art (sketches and portraiture)
“From the Music of Lola Perrin” by Jedika
Art (non portrait)
“Metaphor for a metaphor “by Karsten Stier
PLEASE NOTE:
Landscapes, flowers, skies etc – either as photos or traditional paintings/drawings will no longer be accepted to the group.
Same goes for shots of architecture… The exception would be a picture where the juxtaposition of elements creates something truly “symbolic” like this excellent shot by Melanie McQuoid
“Filtered” Photos (as in “normal” pictures run through a filter in Photo-editing software) are not Symbolic art in my opinion and will no longer be accepted…Sorry, but there are plenty of other groups for that sort of thing
Abstract Art with no symbolism or “deeper meaning” will no longer make the cut…
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR SUBMISSIONS FIT THE GROUP THEME!!!!
