orphans

What to do, they all can’t come home with me. If you are an avid landscaper, flowers, trees and shrubs, you know, how cute and lovely they are when you bring them home, they will grow and spread out. There has to be an awareness of the long range “presentation” or you will be in for a rude awakening when they grow up if you have not allowed for their maturing.

Same applies in life with anything that you bring home that has life of its own. It lives, breathes and develops, just like you do. Even under the same skies, latitude and longitude, nothing will be seen or experienced the same way. Life is multi dimensional, the only constant is change.

Accept, Appreciate, all that is in your life. today is NOW, worrying about yesterday or tomorrow, takes away from NOW.

Sunday morning

demo new and more

Mixed media…. then.. (found in a thrift shop) bigger white canvas, and the small one is a demo I did to show the use of acrylics, inks, stamps and colours available today. The contrast appealed to me yesterday. My intention is to recycle the white canvas. Stay tuned.

PL Principle #3 will live with a mind of appreciation towards others and things

I have a huge appreciation for the work that went into doing the big white canvas, it was actually one of 3 pieces. the middle piece was hexagon and bigger and wider. Must have made a wonderful wall piece.

PL Precept # 1 All things progress and develop.

Hit your stride, get out there and enjoy the day. Love is everywhere, smile and share.

PL calendar day 30

Your surroundings are a mirror of your thoughts

When you think “this is going to be hard” then your situation will become difficult Instead think,” Let’s do this!” and face your situation with determination. Then you will be surprised to see how smoothly things will go.

a cow

2013-10-29 oct 29 021

A cow waited by the side of the road, my mind began a conversation with the cow. I imagined that I was able to sit down in a field of clover and visit … just me, the open field and the cow.

How calm, how quiet my companion was. The only sound the masticating of its cud, and the swishing of its tail.

Yes, I would like to explore the possibility of such a moment. No radio, no sounds of traffic, just the environmental sounds of being in a field with a cow. I imagine that the conversation would be different with a goat. The two are very different.

PL calendar day 19

If you are going to do it, put your whole heart into it

Your degree of seriousness will affect the outcome. Your daily accumulation of effort towards your goals shows just how serious you are.

Thursday doors

IMG_20190514_125911_resized_20190514_115707432

The fascination of a door. I loved that the lace curtain still hung on the door.

IMG_20190514_125311_resized_20190515_120012809

This doorway was further away, however, I couldn’t resist a capture so I could revisit later.. Had someone built a fort for the children to enjoy, or… was it an old structure, repurposed. The character of places found when exploring other landscapes far from the city. Absolute heaven.

Eartha my travelling companion, shares in the delights of taking that secondary road, the quest for adventure, the joy of a discovery. We did have a final destination and arrived soon enough. But, not before we found another gem.

The past is part of our present.

PL calendar day 16

Avoid being careless or overconfident.

Even though you have put your best effort into doing something you still may have made some mistakes. That is why it is important to always work with a prayerful mind.

Why would someone put an old tire there?

PL calendar day 10

When you are not having fun, could it be because you re being lazy? Sometimes you feel blue or can’t seem to find the joy in doing anything. At times like this, just get up and move your body or work your mind to the fullest extent.

If sadness and lack of hope knock I your heart – try to do something positive for someone else.

Wednesday 8th

Day 8 of the PL calendar

First accept Everything

Life is filled with moments, sometimes happy and at times inconvenient. It is important to first accept every situation as it occurs and try to accept and understand it for what it is.

Bom dia!! Greetings on another bright sunny morning. Mid week already, where doe the time go.

It was fantastic day yesterday to travel the roads, the trees along the highway are starting to bud, I could feel the anticipation in every direction. The water levels were still very high as we approached the West Island (heading into Montreal). We observed that the water was still half way up the trees that would usually be above the water line on dry land.

Please take time to remember that tho’ the weather is currently dry, there are thousands who have suffered severe water damage over the last weeks, and need our prayers. Not just a few, but many people have lost year of memories and accumulated treasures, and are finding themselves in a place of sadness with weeks and months of rebuilding and hard work just to regain a sense of “normal”

Life is a succession of lessons, which must be lived to be understood– Ralph Waldo Emerson

thinking playing

face, 5.4.19

What happens when you have time on your hands nd you want to recycle an onion bag. I go into my workshop and play, Meet Ms Onion, she is now waiting for her transformation, when I have time to spend time with her in the “makeup” room.

Good morning everyone! How lovely to see so many smiling faces yesterday at service. Our new Hokyoshi from Brazil, Yoshizumi Terada was our master of ceremonies, when it came time to sing, we all got to enjoy Com Quem Contar with dance movements. It was a DELIGHT. Thank you Yoshi. Another Brazilian member Kaiser Lette Bueno added his voice to the song. “Andei, Andei E encontrei Oshieoya Sama, Oshieoya Sama.

Com Quem Contar has to be the most joyful song, I love it. In English the title is Who to Trust.

Perfect Liberty, day 6 Past, Present or Future, Always remember to be sincere and honest

At any time, the place where you are standing t that moment is the stage upon which you must express yourself. At each moment in time, there is sure to be a way to express yourself in relation to your position or status

Take note – Saturday May 11, service at 10 a.m. Ancestors Day

Sunday, May 12th. is Mother’s Day, service is at 10 a.m.

Welcome Yoshizumi and Kaiser, you enrich our community, injecting a touch of Brazil, To all our members in Brazil, come visit!

MCG demo 2

demo 2 mcg 5.2.19

Happy May 5th. Bom dia!

Another mixed media done for demo. The idea with a demo of new and old products is to show artists, budding new crafters and seasoned expressionist how to use some of the newer products that are arriving on the market daily. Yes you an see YouTube videos but a video isn’t something you can touch, feel and at the same time, have knoledegable staff who can and will help if you have questions.

I know that there are many who prefer to deal online for supplies, and if you know the product, and the supplier, have a particular way of working, and are not going to deviate from what you know.. then go for it.

My experience is that when I am in a creative mood, or am working on an idea, I want and need my inventory handy. Part of the creative process in mixed media is to be open to new possibilities. The demo -before- during prep.. sometimes, what is down could be up =^_^= Abstract work, is lived in the moment.

demo mcg 2,5219 The beauty of abstract mixed media… given the same products, no two pieces will come out the same. How perfect is that. We are all unique … talented and beautiful.

PL calendar day 5 Start by thinking “this is interesting”

Even when you are dealing with a difficult situation, it is important to find something interesting about it. From there, you will be blessed with wisdom and something new will come of it.

My bargain tulips are blooming…

tulips T T
