Banbha by Elluna Art A3 Size Print

This stunning painting of Banbha, Mother of the Earth is the latest piece from Elluna.

Elaine Morgan is the creatress of  Elluna Art.  She is a self- taught artist, healer and holistic therapist living in the West Midlands.  Elaine mainly paints in acrylics onto canvas, stone and fixed frame drums. Elaine’s  inspiration comes from many things, feeling the energies of each season, nature, the land and how women bring through and interpret the Goddess in their everyday lives.  Her paintings also inspire her to write poetry and on many of her cards and prints you will find a poem dedicated to the Goddess.

Elluna Art paintings of the changing face of the Goddess in nature, can often be seen gracing the altar in the Glastonbury Goddess Temple.

The following beautiful poem is devoted to Banbha, and is on the reverse of the print :-

Banbha, Mother of the Earth

O’ Lady Banbha

I bid you hail and welcome

As the wheel of Britannia turns

I feel the warmth of your embrace

Before the cold of winter returns

I watch your creatures run to you

Fox and badger at your side

Providing them with shelter

As in the earth they hide.

I have walked in double spirals

Around circles of ancient stones

And been led by the light of your orb

To the land of my Grandmother’s bones

I have to come to the Isle of Avalon

And climbed your magical Tor

Walked the Labyrinth of the Druids

Along the Dragon lines of lore

I have walked softly on your beauty

Traced your soft lines with my bare feet

I have explored your hills and valleys

And tasted your waters, cool and sweet

I have watched your glorious canopies

Change from green to golden brown

And the day and night become equal

As you wear your Autumn Crown
