Tarena ~ The Faerie Queen

JANUARY 10, 2007

Tarena is the beautiful Faerie Queen who graces my studio and has watched over me now for almost twenty-five years...

Tarena was made twenty-six years ago by artist Marilyn Radzat.
It is a joy to get to know Marilyn... It is no surprise to me that these amazing pieces come from her sweet heart and spirit! For a treat, you must visit Marilyn's studio website and see some of the current incredible creations that come through her hands, heart, and imagination.

Marilyn gives great detail to all of her pieces... Her older ones, like Tarena, are draped in antique laces and velvets, revealing one of a kind vintage pieces of jewelery, as well as crystals and objects from nature.
Here are Tarena's hands, holding a crystal ball wand and rose-quartz heart

Marilyn's pieces have faces full of expression and life.

I love looking into Tarena's face with her wise and loving eyes...

I am very excited to begin taking a six-month on-line class with Marilyn!!! Is is the first time in her thirty-five years of art-making that she will be teaching the techniques she uses to create her pieces. The classes are being offered through Gourd College On-line, as gourds form the base for a lot of her current work!

Workshop with Marilyn Radzat

Our first project will be a "ladybug box," which fits with my ladybug labyrinth projects, a small treasure box to hold my hopes and dreams as the ladybug labyrinth continues to evolve... So, stay tuned for my journaling of this new adventure!

The Retiring of a Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

Labyrinths provide us with a path to practice change. Some labyrinths have withstood the passage of time for thousands of years. Others are here for just an afternoon, drawn in the sand at the edge of the ocean. Many modern labyrinths were meant to last for years, but because of unforeseen circumstances their time is shorter than intended. And they once again help us to practice letting go and giving thanks for the time they are with us. The Labyrinth of Life at the Sebastopol, California Teen Center reached such place of letting go and is at the end of one chapter and the beginning of another chapter that is yet unknown.

Making A Three Circuit Labyrinth

By Lea Goode-Harris • 05 Aug, 2023

Sometimes... a labyrinth can take years to become a physical reality. In 2018 I met with my friend Deb, to discuss her desire to have a labyrinth on the beautiful land she lives on. Despite our plans and several meetings, listening to the land and finding the right spot, the labyrinth did not come to fruition. Fast-forward five years and in the blink of an eye... it happened!
