‘Nuit and the Seven Sisters’
8.5" x 11" Print of Original Oil Painting by Shelley Irish
9.25” x 11.75” total dimension including frame
Framed Fine Art Giclée Print on Metallic Paper
*No Gallery Sati watermark appears on the print. Please note that the first picture is taken at an angel to reduce glare and reflection. Each physical framed print is rectangular with lovely squared corners.*
These metallic prints are fantastic for representing oil paintings. They have a pearlescent white point that closely mimics oil painting in a way I have not seen duplicated. The whites are the perfect amount of shiny, like oil paintings are, and the shadows are luxuriously luminescent. Each print comes in a frame protected by glass with a sawtooth hanger attached to the back, ready for hanging on the wall.
I hand package every print carefully, using corner protectors and padding to protect your print through shipment. It ships flat through USPS Priority Mail.
Every print comes with my official Certificate of Authenticity, which I sign once the print is sold. If you would like me to dedicate the print to you or the person you are buying it for, please indicate so in the notes section.
Description of original oil painting used to make the print:
Nuit and the Seven Sisters explores the thin veil between us and the world of spirit. Nuit, the Egyptian goddess of the sky, lets down her ladder of stars for us to ascend. She circles the sky like the spoke of a watch, turning in perfect rhythm with all of creation. She holds up the sky and is the sky itself, her body, a blanket of stars. She is the safe womb of creation where all energy is born. Continually birthing our world, she is in a constant state of conception, gestation and birthing. At the end of her heart centered spiral plume of stars floats the Pleiades constellation, our seven sisters. They keep the torch lit for our transcendence.
The veil splits like fabric in our moment of asking for the mystery to express itself to us. Like a thread unwinding it's own sewing, the veil turns our day to night and illuminates the mysteries in the depth of the dark. The thread is always available to us, allowing us to loosen and tighten the veil at will. We sit, present with the veil open, and watch it drip it's milk onto the egg of creation.
Blessed Be!
