!Avebury Summer Solstice" by Angie Livingstone (The Glittering Fox)

Introduction

It is also my forty-ninth piece inspired by Angie's work, and soon we will release our co-created book.

I love this painting with the earthlight shining through the trees as the faithful hold their torches, lighting the stones.

This is her Etsy store

The music is "Circle Of Hands" by Uriah Heep from their album "Demons and Wizards"

    Her picture kind of reminds me of "The Allegory of The Cave' in a way. Your words and her pictures are always a perfect match.
