Maneki Neko Art - Editions

August: when those who half a year ago were saddened by overcast skies, now wish for the shadowing shelter of clouds and cool touch of rain again. Children hoard the last moments of their annual freedom from their school rooms and schedules ignoring the oppressive heat with their outdoor adventures. And flowers of richer, darker gold and purple hues begin to show themselves as the first heralds of Autumn, promising cool, crisp winds for those who can make it over this pinnacle of Summer.

              

This piece by Maneki Neko is part of a series of an open edition for each month of 2023. It was created through experimentation with the AI tools Midjourney and Stable Diffusion in multiple iterations of combinations of prompts and settings to produce hundreds of floral synthographs. The best of these images were curated and upscaled with Stable Diffusion to bring out even more details and finished with color and fine detail editing in Photoshop.

Seekers of Awe and Wonder

September: when we experience the paradox of both equilibrium and transition. Cool, crisp breezes persuade the gardens to turn out their harvest while the rich golds and crimsons of Fall foliage replace the brighter hues of Summer months. Summer bids us farewell at the Autumn Equinox when the sun hangs in the sky for equal time for day and night and the earth is at a midpoint in its annual rotation. Summer never wants to end though, and it often returns for an encore of hot days before exiting the stage. Children are settled into their school routines and adults are planning family gatherings for the end of the year. September is a liminal  time where nothing settles, but it is full of the excitement of anticipation of what comes next.

Liminal Perception

October: when the chill wakes us to a higher spiritual awareness. A time of harvest and preservation, this month is when we begin to spend more time inside in reflection than outside in experience. Towards the months end comes a rumored visitation by those whove passed on to other realms. While some spirits are welcomed by their descendants as a blessing, others are feared and have a more dire agenda and must be fooled or placated with sweets: the excuse for a night of masquerade, which, while concealing identity, may afford a chance to expose truths about oneself obscured the rest of the year.

Dwelling in the Higher Octave

November: when the cold weather and skies darkened by clouds and the Sun spending less and less time among us seems to inspire the gathering of friends and family to remind us all that there is still light and laughter in the world. It is the time of harvest and the beginning of celebrations that stretch out through the end of the year. And while these are the events we regularly mark the traversal of our lives with, there are always new things to discover about each other as we catch up on all the things that have happened to us since the last time we met. This is a month of both the expected and revelation.

A Routine Novelty

December: the intersection of endings and beginnings, a pivotal moment in the eternal annual cycle. Trees, shedding the last whispers of their yearly growth, adorn themselves in a pristine mantle of snow. The sun, being more and more hesitant to linger in the last half year, finally shifts its course, and begins gracing us with longer days of light. This is the month where we experience the joy of togetherness; friends and family converge in a celebration of the year"s conclusion, cherishing presence over presents, indulging in festive feasts, and exchanging not just gifts, but also the generosity of spirit.

December is a reflective pool, inviting us to gaze deeply into the past twelve months. This poignant juncture in the twirling dance of time is where we stop to sift through memories, to embrace the lessons learned, whether bitter or sweet, and to let these insights sculpt our aspirations for the year ahead. This month is not just about drawing the curtains on the past; it"s about stepping through the threshold of tomorrow, holding close our memories and lessons, as we embark on new adventures. In December, we find closure and renewal, a delicate balance where every end is a new beginning, and every beginning, a gentle farewell.
