Today has been a sacred day. I feel open, expansive, rooted in the Earth, and excited about my life. When I allow who I am to be fully present, in each moment, I feel alive, magical, creative and in alignment with my soul's journey. I feel love for everything and everyone...I feel my relationship with Mother Earth deepening, as I feel the infinite universe expanding.
I have spent the last few years, healing deeply, opening immensely, and in a sense painting who I am into physical reality. By the reflection of my paintings, I see the journey unfolding before my eyes. It has been a magical, mystical, deep, soulful and humorous journey. I am deeply grateful for the beauty of my life and the opportunity to be exploring and opening so deeply in such a beautiful place. I see the vision clearly of why I am here at this time and am deeply committed in supporting the evolution of humanity in alliance with Mother Earth.
Art has the potential to change reality...I am discovering that when I let go of the mind and the concept of what I would enjoy painting, that the vision truly has the opportunity to come through...and this is when reality changes... reality changes because by being present to the opportunities, a new awareness of reality shifts...a new awareness of what exists beyond the experience of what we perceived a moment ago.
The other day, I was reflecting on the nature of my paintings. I spend time with the trees so therefore, one would think that I would naturally paint trees...this is me being in my mind... what is actually being birthed is an energetic experience of nature - a vision of nature - the universe on canvas - alive - in it's own uniqueness - it's own experience - really there are no words for it... because it is really it's own language...
The trees are coming through...I can feel this deeply, and there is so much that the trees are showing me - before these paintings are actually birthed. So, I realized the other day to really trust the visions that are coming through and to not try to make sense of what I am painting or seeing - for this is the Magic Of Creating Art and the potency that lies within the experience.
