Reflecting on my day.
Sail your own course to open waters, break free of attachments, forget those who are unappreciative of your time and energy. Stay steady, stay strong.

November, fall into creativity
November brings a host to creative challenges, including the National Novel Writing Month to Art Everyday. Currently Im taking on both challenges, this will be my third year participating with art everyday month and my second go around for novel writing.
AEDM2014
Day 1.
Perfect timing, I randomly picked a creativity card of the day, from Julia Cameron’s, The Artist Way inspirational deck of cards. – “Take one small daily action instead of indulging in the big questions.”
Visit Leah’s website to participate in the art everyday challenge.

Play amongst the trees
Swing, swing all the way high
Fall days filled with magic
Changes hidden amongst the trees
Spontaneity grabs hold
Lost, lost in the beauty
Winds of change
(Untitled and unfinished – acrylic on canvas)
As if by magic an unseen source
guiding along invisible currents
pushing air through tight open spaces
traveling across the surface
absorbing into the body
reaching a new friend
speaks with quiet force – a change is coming do you accept
invite, anticipate, refresh,
and then its gone….
Living on the cusp of reality
Straddle the invisible line of reality
step on over to where anything goes
where non-boring is a necessity in the common place
happily not to commit to a serious relationship with the hours
everything is and will not be what it seems
creating a place where fun exists and laughter soars
all in a days work
The body
Turbulent waves thrust unsettling stings
where hopelessness dwells
rush of emotion rises
trickles down to the soul
where sadness thrives
Transition
Sky in transition
clouds expand in all directions
blank spaces filled in grey and blue
comforted by the difference
nature is observed
I am grounded
The guide
Winged beauty
Stands tall high above all
Out stretched hands grasping
nothing returned
High on her feet the cold hard surface pressing
One step forward
guided by the future
Still standing tall high above all
Sometimes we are given words and ideas and we just need to get it out of the head and write them down or draw it out. It so happened that the words came to me first. Years later thought the sketch was appropriate for this.
