Messages Under Glass:
“As if a moment in
time stood still; this ethereal beauty standing before me.
Dreamlike, but I am not dreaming! I feel the energy, my body is
light.
My mind is clear, my heart and soul are open. The child within me
knows
the truth; will my adult mind allow the magic to carry with me?
Others will
grow old, as days pass them by, living in a stale, colorless world with
eyes
half open. Long forgotten the magic and fantasy of childhood.
First we have
to believe, and then we believe!” –unknown
“…just close your eyes and
keep your mind wide open…” - The Bridge to Tarabithia

Inspiration:
Unicorn Dream was developed from the final scene from a children’s story
I am writing called Mariah’s Magic Quest, about finding everyday
miracles in life. The book will be available soon in print and an
online version will be available on this site. Illustrations are
being done by Heather Lawrence. Woven throughout the book are images of my
fantasy themed art mosaics; fairies, mermaids, castles, dragons, and the
unicorn, along with beautiful illustrations created by Heather.
Included in this particular piece of art are messages from the story which
emanates powerful energy and magic. An important silver medallion is
located on the art which is a significant piece in the end of the story.
Another unique feature with this mosaic is it can be viewed after the
lights are turned off. The entire night sky and moon glow in the dark,
excluding the black silhouette of the girl and unicorn. Absolutely
magical! I am very excited about the inclusion of my art pieces into
this insightful children’s story, and how Unicorn Dream contains words
and visual clues from the story, unifying them together. We are
looking forward to the completed book project!
