Horses Series: New Painting ~ You Are Safe

















YOU ARE SAFE ~ painting by vegan artist © Karrel Christopher ~ original oil on canvas work from the Heart Spirit: HORSE Series
~ measures 18” x 24” inches ~ available for purchase



The safety of a loving embrace… huge exhale… feel that glorious blanket of comfort… the bliss of contentment… tender reassurance… that sense of security that everybody longs for and cherishes…sacred trust and safety.  To be protected from use, slavery, exploitation, abuse and murder…to have our needs thoughtfully met…to rejoice in freedom… to always be free from harm.   Perhaps one of greatest expressions of love we can offer is to help ensure that everyone we relate to is safe.  By treating all beings with respect, kindness and compassion, we affirm our values.  We can elevate our commitment to kindness beyond our immediate circle - reaching further - with responsible actions that consider all our Earth Family unseen, worldwide.  Perhaps they - most of all - need our nurturing and protection.  Please remember them too.  All of our choices have consequences and the Golden Rule should be our guide.  May all beings walk, run, hop, swim, slither and fly in dignity, safety and peace.  May they relax and be joyous because you are kind and trustworthy in all your relationships with life.

CHEETAH 4 ~ Original Oil Painting


































Cheetah Lady ~ Guided by Sky & Earth Spirits
by artist © Karrel Christopher
Original oil on canvas painting 18" x 36" inches
~ available for purchase ~
The 16th work in my series of Big Cats and my 4th Cheetah painting.  My first three Cheetahs were special commissions. In this fourth work, I wanted to play with a more fanciful style ~ celebrating a mystical connection with the Earth, elements and life.  The butterflies and beetles included are indigenous to Kenya where many cheetahs live.  I deeply admire the dignity, beauty and wisdom of animals ~ and feel they have much to teach us.  The natural world can inspire, calm, heal and enlighten us, if we are open to its magic.  Hopefully people and the big cats will find more respectful and responsible ways of coexisting.  As with all beings, they deserve respect, compassion and protection. Create a world respectful, just, safe and joyous for everyone.
