The Ladies of Summerland. 
From Wikipedia: "Emanuel Swedenborg (1688–1772) inspired Andrew Jackson Davis (1826–1910), in his major work The Great Harmonia, to say that Summerland is the pinnacle of human spiritual achievement in the afterlife; that is, it is the highest level, or 'sphere', of the afterlife we can hope to enter." I designed these ladies after I'd heard of the Summerland and become intrigued by the idea and the name. I just thought how beautiful the idea behind it was and how if I were to rest on some other plane I would want it to be as beautiful as I find the natural world on earth. 







All of these ladies are available as archival inkjet prints on paper sizes of either 8.5x11 inches or 13x19 inches in my Etsy shop.
