This is a sacred place where I can explore my heart with paint and pen...

A sacred place where I invite you to travel along...

Other paintings...

I have been celebrating the feminine by taking a class: Painting the Feminine with Connie Solera.  They have been opening me up to a different style of painting...and giving me different messages. I am going to share a couple with you now...

SHE APPEARED FLYING ON WINGS

there was paint....then more paint...water...fingers ...walking away...
searching...listening to my feminine soul...
there was more paint...more water...more fingers...
and then she appeared flying in on wings...





AT 64


she had walked thru many forests in her years...
some were very dark and fearful...others she wandered
around in...but she always emerged on the other side...
sooner or later...
she knows that life is like that...forests and sunshine both helping
her to grow...
But at 64
She is open...
She sees her perception...
She speaks with expression...
She knows her love...
She honors her power...
She accepts her feminine...
She survives.


 
 
WHO AM I?
 
I am the women who is no longer afraid to peel back the layers...
I am the women who reaches for my dreams...
I am the women who uncaged her heart...
I am the women who paints and writes my truth...
I am the women who has found her wings...
I am the women with love in her heart instead of fear...
I am a strong...creative...intelligent...rooted...feminine women.
 



dream...

 
there they are...my dreams...the ones I pushed back...pushed aside...gave up on as I concentrated on everyone but myself...
there they are...my dreams...reappearing as I reawaken.
 
What are your dreams for yourself?

growth...

 
 
there are times when you can feel your growth...big and bold...shooting upward.
 
there are times when it whispers a softness of newness...
 
there are times when you are not even aware of your growth...
 
BUT...you are always growing.
 
 
What growth are you aware of today?

celebrate YOU...

 
There is that moment...when you know...when you feel your life force expanding and rising...and at that moment you must celebrate who you are...what you do...your gifts...your beauty...celebrate love, with affection, affirmation, validation for all of your abundance...Celebrate YOU! 

What can you celebrate about yourself today?

Connect the dots...

 
The message came across my email..."connect the dots"...I am aware to connect the past with the present ...aware that all have made me the person that I am today...aware that my heart is full of gratitude for all that has transpired in my life...both the light and the dark...today, I connect all the dots and feel full...
 
What dots can you connect today?

Listen to the softness...

 
CHATTER...CHATTER...CHATTER...
 
STOP...Light a candle...BREATHE...LISTEN...
Listen to the softness...right below the surface...Fill yourself up with it and carry it throughout the day...
 
Can you hear the softness of your day?

new beginnings...

 
New beginnings...I often think of the sadness when it appears that things are ending...coming to a close...being finished...today, I am resting with that thought...I am seeing that often when things close you are open to starting a new beginning...that you have space that can be filled with all sorts of possibilities...and that those things that appear to be ending will stay in your heart as you move forward...
 
What new beginning can you be aware of today for yourself?
