Web of Life, acrylics on canvas, 12" x 16" © Joe Gallwitz 2014

Many of us have felt or sensed the interconnection of all life and the cosmos, but here I have attempted to paint the vision I had seeing those lines of energy near the end of a Mother Ayahuasca ceremony I attended in N. Carolina. Still deep in the Mother's embrace I walked some distance from the ceremony area and was gifted with the ability to see these subtle lines of energy, waves of life flowing along the lines connecting everything I could see- the plants, animals, planets and stars. It was wondrous and a bit overwhelming to behold and I was blessed with the sight. I hope someday to arrive at a place in my life experience where I will perceive the web of life whenever I choose to do so.
