Open the Duir...

I would like to share with you one of the more inspirational things I love.
This is the "A knock at the Door" flash video from Duirwaigh Galleries. It is complied of art by many people who I am now honored and proud to call my friends. It was inspiring the first time I saw and still is. I think this really sums up why I love fantasy and mythic art

I love that, every time. Sometimes it makes me sad, though. Not sure why. Maybe the dichotomy between dreams and reality. Especially these days. I'd like to hide behind the door. I got the dvd somewhere. . . . (rummages)

Hey! If you click on the boxes at the bottom of the YouTube screen, it brings up other YouTubes. Right now I'm listening/watching "Thistledew" by Martine Lund-Hoel. Gorgeous haunting tune! I'd never paid attention this performer before, even though I like the music for Knock at the Door! LOVE love love his/her music. Will be sure to order some now. THANK YOU!

Ha! I think great minds think alike and we were listening to Thisledew at the same time! I told Leah it's her theme song, since her "Faery Name" is Sunflower Thistledew. Lovely coincidence.

Matine is all woman and very talented. I have been meaning to record some of her music for our driving mix for some time and that is exactly what I am doing.

Oh, it was you mentioning Ruth that got me over to see Duir again. Thanks.

This has been one of my favorite videos for a long time. I watch it every now and then when I need a pick me up, because it never fails to make me feel swept away with happiness and inspiration :).

i love this - thanks for the reminder :-)

i have a dragonfly tattoo on my right shoulder for just this reason - as a reminder to me to see the magical, to see the wonder, to see the beauty and glory that is all around us
