The encaustic medium is magical, vibrant and translucent.  My creative muse guides, inspires and feeds my soul through this medium, mixed media and collage.  Blessing me with endless moments of creative joy and harmony...providing those ahhaa moments about life.  Join me on this creative journey, spend some time reading my musings about this life, the blessed other souls that come into contact with mine, however brief or often, that can leave everlasting imprints on our journey....perhaps our lives might share some similarities, bringing us closer and more connected...and less isolated.

"I suppose there is one friend in the life of each of us who seems not a separate person, however dear and beloved, but an expansion, an interpretation, of one's self, the very meaning of one's soul." ~ Edith Wharton

Here's to finding those expansive moments.....

Be U - Glorious and True

Today I have been playing in the studio all morning..I arose with the birds singing, the air was crisp and fresh..and the world was quiet as in the wee hours of the morning, sleeping souls still rest from the nite before....I stir in my studio, heat up my griddle, play some soulful tunes..pick an affirmation or two for the day...and begin the magic of storytelling as my creative muse would like it told...

I am working on a piece called "Promise, the measure of..."....it is about the promise of our little daughters and sons, nieces and nephews, they each remind us, when they come into the world...of promise, hope and eternal love....in particular I was thinking of Maya and my new niece Esme, when I was creating this piece....I will post a photo later of the work.....

The beautiful little souls of our children, nieces and nephews, remind us that there is hope in the world for a brighter day..for taking stock of today and delving into the blessings of this moment as they only know this moment, this day.....
Their lives bring so much joy, possibilities of such greatness, and promise.
I am grateful for my little Maya, for Esme, Noah, Ella and Kai..The little souls of my world..some of whom, I see more than others..but they are all equally precious...they are divine and love.  They teach me each day to be me...as I do have a lot to give, as each of you do too, to this world in this moment and always....So follow your heart's calling and true self..you have so much to give.

I Took This Vow - Will You too!

Deepak Chopra is the President and Founder of the Alliance for a New Humanity and on November 7, 2008, at 9:45 a.m, the 500 people attending the Alliance for a New Humanity Human Forum in Barcelona took a vow for non-violence in their thoughts, speech and actions.  Each person decided to ask other people in their lives to join them in taking the vow.  The goal then became to create a global movement, which would mobilize 100 million people to make the same commitment.  

Think of what this would mean regarding "transformation", peace and compassion for self and others...if we all took this commitment and asked others to take it too and to gently remind each other when we stray from this commitment.  I took this vow and hope you will consider it too.   Here is to a new humanity of compassion, kindness, love and peace.

Help spread the word, Take the Vow.
