Red banded wrasse says, Fish Art as apparel? Yeah!
A small Red banded wrasse has floated in to say, check out my Zazzle Art Shop for botanically drawn fish designs on various products and apparel! Can fish make good mousepads? you ask. Why, yes they can and do.
Plus, here's a heads-up direct from me to you:
A new Links List has appeared in Secret Moon Art's sidebar column containing a few of my favorite Zazzle Shops - more will be added soon - so do swim over the 'net when you can and visit their wildlife offerings and wonderful nature paintings, too.
Or you may wish to check out my designs at Cafe Press, if you prefer their site.
After all, gift-giving season nears, y'know!

Temple of the Great Stone Face: Venus, Moon, and Mars at '30Pisces'
'Temple of the Great Stone Face' is a drawing meant to represent Astrology's Sabian Symbol for '30 Pisces' the degree of April 22, 2009's Moon-Venus Occultation - when Venus disappears behind the Moon - and marks the conjunction of Venus (attraction) and Mars (desire) for a romantic rendezvous, planetary-style.
And...Wednesday, April 22 is Earth Day 2009 as well!
That's a lot of planetary action occurring at one little degree out of the 360 degrees of the zodiac, isn't it?
Here I quote from Marc Edmund Jones' version of the Symbols for '30 Pisces' which ends the full cycle/circle of the zodiac and butts against the Aries Point of Prominence (00 Aries00):
'The Great Stone Face'...a symbol of human responsibility as an immortality of the soul, and of a way of living which has become a continual manifestation of its ideal and so a constant dramatization of its self-discovery to others as an encouragement to them in their own alignment to eternal reality.
Each individual selects the image within himself to which he would shape himself outwardly, and this he comes to resemble as in Nathaniel Hawthorne's tale. Destiny is character as it most persistently constitutes itself.
Keyword: DISCERNMENT...
positive expression: self-integrity in its irresistible impact on the course of events;
neg/unconscious/shadow side: wholly inarticulate and ineffectual self-realization.
The Sabian Symbols in Astrology by Dr. Marc Edmund Jones.
Drawing by Jude Cowell 2009+: Prismacolor oil and Rexel Derwent watercolour pencils on paper.

A Large Disappointed Audience
Here is a full view of A Large Disappointed Audience, a drawing in honor of the Sabian Symbol for '28 Aries.'
In his book, The Sabian Symbols in Astrology, Dr. Marc Edmund Jones gives this degree as...
To which I would add: the show must go on!

In his book, The Sabian Symbols in Astrology, Dr. Marc Edmund Jones gives this degree as...
...the transiency of the rewards in a life taken too literally and narrowly in its more superficial terms. Implicit in the reversed symbolism is the disillusionment that comes when an individual learns that he cannot depend on the applause of his fellows, or make the momentary mood of the masses any proper guide for the values he should pursue.
There is here the call to a selfhood which can rest secure in its own creative potentiality, catering to nothing exterior to itself.
The keyword is: DISJUNCTION...
positive manifestation: complete spiritual independence;
negative/unconscious/shadow side: a destructive assimilation of the self to every defeat or frustration of human kind.
To which I would add: the show must go on!

Minerva's Glen
Minerva's Glen being one of my all time favorite drawings, I'm adding it here for your viewing or reviewing purposes.
Blending 'real with visionary' somehow seems most interesting to me.
What do you think?

Pleiades Sisters: a portrait
Pleiades Sisters, a drawing by jude cowell (c) 2008.
Yes, it's true that Secret Moon Art is not usually where I publish figure studies unless they have starry connections.
So here's a photo of the Pleiades, the most auspicious and identifiable Taurean star cluster of all, the mythology of which appears in many cultures as a hen with chicks, a flock of doves, and for my drawing purposes, The Seven Sisters.
Which is which? You decide: it's Sterope, Merope, Electra, Maia, Taygete, Celaeno, and Alcyone, the daughters of Atlas and Pleione, as represented in whimsical human form by your artist of the evening, Jude Cowell.
And tonight is Earth Hour from 8:00 to 9:00 pm, if it hasn't come to your time zone already...it will be a good chance to view the stars without the usual light polution and save some wattage simultaneously!
