The "All One Under the Sun" Drum - Dominique Hurley

What a blissfully intensive time of channeling visions, painting and doing energy work in the studio since the beginning of this promising new year.

I’ve already got 6 of the 8 drums in my Painted-Drum-Fundraiser completed. They’re averaging 16 hours each, so yes…. intensive! But I’ve always loved long hours in the spirit / creative zone.

Four of the drums have already found homes. My Facebook followers & Friends usually get first glimpse at my work so feel free to look me up there too.

Each of the drums has such different energy. Because of this, I’m sure that each drum will find its right person. Just like with my paintings.

This one, the “All One Under the Sun Drum” took the longest to paint.

As you’ll see in the video below, the drum hoop itself was elaborate to paint with all its loving people and happy colourful confetti dots.

This drum is infused with the joyously harmonious energy of diversity, inclusivity, community, togetherness and vibrancy.

Drumming it, I could feel the heartbeat of our beloved Mother Earth, Gaia and all of her children.

I could also feel the love pouring down on us from our Father/Mother God, the Central Sun, through our sun.

This drum reminds me of when I discovered drum circles in Saskatchewan back in 2006. My employer, the late mystic photographer Courtney Milne and his wife Sherrill Miller gave me a buffalo hide drum, and I had plenty of opportunities to use it with our circle of friends and at spiritual events.

A few years into my time in Saskatoon, Jade Cathy Chicoine started offering community drum circles, which she still does. This soul sister’s events brought such joy into our community. If you’re in that area, check out Zen Rhythm Co – Listen. Feel.Play. for events.

At the end of her circles, she always had us gather the energy we’d generated in the room and, with a swoop of our arms, send it to all those who needed it around the planet.

As Jade says,
