Often collectors will ask me where I get my ideas and inspirations for my Artwork.I have a strong spiritual connection between my heart and art.  I am blessed to have a very fluid flow of creative inspiration, and most of the time the ideas for pieces come quite naturally. Colors or themes will pop into my mind throughout the day and night, and I keep several journals where I can jot them down or sketch out an image. Other times they come to me when I am doing personal healing work - when I am journaling or meditating. And at times they come in a very focused way during those moments when I do Automatic Writing. I will quickly grab one of my notebooks and begin writing, and while those messages come fast, the handwriting is fast and often messy. I have to be sure to read it back to myself several times to be sure that I can retain it because the handwriting WILL not be neat. This week I decided that I would share a bit of that process and the creations that came forth. Here is an...

The Spring Equinox is approaching (Wednesday March 20th), and will be coupled with March's Full Super Moon that same evening. Mercury will also be going direct the following week. For those who are in sync with the moon and these energies, some of the shifts can already be felt. The spiritual meaning of the events promises to be not only a beautiful healing time, but also a very productive time. This particular Full Moon speaks to letting go of things that no longer serve us, while the Spring Equinox speaks to Renewal, Rebirth, and New Beginnings.  Beautifully, it's much like the gardener weeding and tilling his garden space before planting the new season's seeds. I decided that I wanted to create a prayer altar that would reflect that symbolism so that I could set intentions and gratitude  on that day. I contemplated for a few days on the things in my life that no longer served me, the areas that seemed stuck, and the things that weren't growing. I thought...

This weekend I created a new Mandala Painting with a Butterfly as its focal point, and wanted it to exude and earthy yet feminine allure. I decided the best way to achieve that was to use an Art Nouveau color palette. The one I chose had a combination of Antique White, Pale Yellow. Soft Salmon, Teal, Payne's Grey, and White along with a Honey Brown as a background. The finished piece came out exactly how I was hoping. Not only will it compliment almost any home decor, but it DOES bring an Earthy yet Feminine feel to it. You can see more of the painting on my website here  Garden of Bliss Original Butterfly Mandala Painting

The Quest for Happiness....aren't we ALL on that adventure? We all seek it, but it looks different to each of us. Sometimes we've had it all along and never realized it.....until it slipped away. Sometimes we have it, we are completely holding it in our hands, but mistakenly think that happiness is something else....like an "aha moment" with a big fat label on it, and so we overlook it without a second glance. Parameters on Happiness Sometimes people put numerous parameters on it, like a series of events need to happen before it is attained. Sometimes it is a collection of material things. Sometimes people think that it lies within another person, and that doesn't usually work out well. And sometimes people think that if they follow the "rulebook"....DO the things it says...ATTAIN the things it says....and climb the ladder like everyone else....THEN you will have it.  Finding your own Recipe for Happiness The thing is, someone else's rule...

"Mission of the Old Soul" is an Original Mixed Media Painting done in a monochromatic style, utilizing an accent color, shades of black and white with a bit of deep red. The Old Soul is represented by the aged door with wings and the 33. The number 33 is a Master Number with great symbolism. It personifies the Old Soul, the Master Teacher, who carries vast responsibility. The Old Soul is highly sensitive and spiritually evolved, concerned for the Earth and ALL of humanity. Dedicated to raising consciousness and doing good in the world, they committed to a life of service...a Steward of Humanity.
