Altar Ego
Meet the Maker
I'm Julie Vesely. My "Altar Ego" is the part of me that longs to connect ~ to my Inner Self, to Nature, and to Others. "Earth Prayers" reflect and hold the energy of my need to make order from disorder, my love of color and beauty, and my desire to share myself and what I see with others.
I create Earth Prayers from bits of nature that I collect on meditative walks in my city, on nearby mountain hikes, on vacation in the Pacific Northwest, and in the Southwest! It is a practice of attention, awe, and non-attachment.
I hope Earth Prayers will inspire connection and a desire to care for our Mother Earth. Perhaps you will create your own Earth Prayers! And I hope you'll love them as I do!
How it’s Made
My husband, Matt wanted to try out his trailer/camping. He's been outfitting his trailer so that I would want to go camping. And it worked. Not quite "glamping," but close! And definitely worth the drive from Salt Lake City. Part way through our day-hike, I climbed up on a rocky hill, and created this beautiful star-shaped mandala from what was nearby. Matt played with his drone, but didn't get any usable footage of my creating/creation! Oh well. Next time.
