At Water's Edge

At Water's Edge

Dragonflies flit at the water's edge

Birds nest among the rushes

The serenity of the sublime

An amazing special place and time

Golden glint upon the wing

Tiny buds in many trees

Attuned to every minute each hour

The blossoming of a single flower

As we have just passed the Spring equinox and the first days of spring are in bloom today we speak of how the journey of less inspires. A myriad of thoughts swirl in a mind that is like a teacup, once full it must be emptied. When one is baggage free physically cleansed of clutter and mentally cleansed of emotional baggage then one has less stress. Less stress creates more flow for inspired thoughts to enter into the consciousness of the awakened ones.

Inspiration can be a dream from any source visual mental physical or spiritual because as every artist knows... Inspiration is a well which once tapped will never run dry. Fluidity is inspiration's life long companion. Fluidity opens one up to possibility and possibilities are infinite. Infinite possibilities open the gateway to flow and flow begets inspiration. The cycle continues to turn and more and more ideas are created through inspiration and then the beauty of this magic is that many new creations are born. New creations start new cycles of inspiration.

Nature provides us the backdrop of cycles that we witness as the seasons change. In this time of glorious Spring we invite you to view the following oil pastel inspired by the beauty of Deer Lake Park near our home. May the color and form inspire you to create your own works at this tender beginning time of Spring. You are so loved and so blessed.

Also inspired by the beauty of Deer Lake Park.

Morning Song

Dear ones today is the festive time to celebrate the Saint, Patrick who brings blessings to those who call upon his service. This Celtic tradition of lush green goes back into a more simpler time of love peace and harmony and those who cherished their connection to Mother Earth. The nature spirits abound and can be seen dancing in this painting. They too bring a message of joy and happiness to all who celebrate with them.

On this day of St. Patrick's the Spirit world and the Nature Spirits wish to acknowledge all of you by giving you Irish blessings. May the wind always blow behind you, may any clouds disperse and may the sun always shine brightly upon your path. The proverbial pot of gold at the end of the Rainbow is a reality for all who trust and believe in the abundance of the Universe.

This image has been chosen because of the various hues of green and it's Celtic portrayal of the treed earth. Trees were sacred to the ancient Celts and Druids each and every tree carries it's own medicine and symbolic lore. Today is a beautiful morning and we say Happy top of the morning to you and yours, you are so blessed and so loved.

Mourning Song so named for the honoring of the trees. Oil paint on stretched canvas 48" x 96"

To see all that is with more clarity helps one to realize that all that lies before us is a manifestation of what we give to the world. The Tao teaches us the way, the way of give and take the way of yin and yang. The importance of balance is essential to the Soul who is journeying on the path. Balance is reflected in the Tao. A perfect spiral of energy is found in all things and resonates to the profound sacred geometry of the Universe. 

Over the past few weeks at the beginning of this New Year you have experienced the quickening, the life force of energy strength and vitality that runs through your entire being, making you feel brand new. This newness inspires you to express yourself in many many beautiful creative ways. The beauty of the new spring is a gift to open to the Divine. Share your creative works with others leave something to this world, something of light and love. Gift the world with your presence, and commune with the Divine. 

Breathe in the freshness of the air and notice each tiny bud each tender shoot each little leaf and how they dance in the gentle breeze. Your inspiration is awakening you and every day you are becoming more alive. Nature echoes your process so dear ones call upon the inspiration of Nature's Dance to help you at this time. Call upon the wisdom of the Tao. Follow the Way to new opportunities of growth.
