These are some of the metalwork nichos (shrines) I've made in the last 2 weeks.
I love this "heart on fire" theme.
It's a common mexican folk art image.
Milagro corazon - or healing heart.
Did you know our hearts have neurons too?
Not just our brains?
It is strangely comforting to know that.
It means that even in the midst of something I don't understand with my mind, my heart can know a thing or two.
How many times have you said,
"I know in my heart ..." -?-
I'm leaning on that knowledge these days.

Love Covers Us: Altoids tin, aluminum flashing, aluminum pie tin, gold foil, bottle cap
Don't Be a Hater: Altoids tin, aluminum flashing, aluminum pie tin, gold foil, tomato sauce can lid, bottle cap

Always the heart knowledge is more reliable than head knowledge, and sometimes they are simply the same thing. I LOVE these.

ReplyDeleteI have to think about that...the heart and neurons...I guess that's where the impulse to beat comes from. I think it's the nodal something or other. Gosh too many cobwebs in my brain! But, I do know about "knowing in my heart" it's real.
