Black butterflies are considered an omnious sign.
A sign of upcoming death.
Death of someone or something, a painful transition of the soul to another level. Like all painful experiences, losing anything or anyone may feel devastating and lead to denial and resistance to the experience itself.
Religions exist to thrive on death and similar transitions, after all something certain for all cannot really be a unique extraordinary experience, could it?
And there comes the gap between man and religion. It takes a strong faith to the principles of divinity not to lose religion during pain. It also takes humility and compassion.
Today's office art is inspired by Black Butterflies
I competed the artwork using mixed media including drawing tool (pens and markers), photography and Snapseed.
Thank you for your support @mariandavp I love the balance of the black and deep blue colors of this pieces. The butterflies represent change and metamorphosis, the transition into another life. You are correct, people fear death and the unknown but when you have faith that there is a High Power and that it is made of love, we know that there is love on the other side. Recently a friend of mine died, but instead of a funeral, we had a celebration full of live music, dance, drinks and cheer, because we celebrated her life and it's what she wanted. Life and Great art! Cheers!
Dark, but very beautiful.
It has been an awfully long time since I have read the Book of Job, or Jung's commentary on it "Answer to Job." Perhaps I should re-read both with your image and words in mind.
Are you referring to the book of Job in the bible sir @onceuponatime? If it is, its such an amazing book where Job didnt really give up on his faith amidst the hardships which can also be regarded to the post above by ma'am @mariandavp having emphasized these words:
"It takes a strong faith to the principles of divinity not to lose religion during pain."
Fortunately I haven't read either so you gave me something to look forward to... Thank you dear @onceuponatime!
Wow the art is incredible. The image of a woman with a butterfly is a wonderful blend of art. I am very comforted to see every art that @mariandavp share. I will wait for the next post.

as a doctor, I see a lot of suffering and pain. Its hard not to lose religion during those times. It takes a great amount of faith. Btw amazing artwork
Thank you very much doctor! 😊
That is such a true statement. I’m glad you have art to express the beating of the soul with us @mariandavp. Still praying for you all.
A thank you is not enough @lydon.sipe! You are always warming our hearts!
DarkMarianda is back. It's beautiful ;)
Yes I haven't managed to keep her away 😉 thanks dear @yaan!
Direct from the creative heart and soul ontothe paper. Black or dark, just a sign, dont let it come close to you. So good you created it down on paper. Now time to shine again!
But its still beautiful, and this dark thought will flush away.
I like how you always pick the optimistic side of things! Thank you!

The picture depicts a hidden mystery to me! Its somehow unrevealed and still not disclosed but it just portrays a message of power and dominance! Nice art though!
