Colouring, an art form that I love to enjoy visually but realized a long time ago, that this skill was not in my bag of tricks. MY friend Awen who is a genius with a colour palette never ceases to amaze me with her delightful little art pieces. She send me this little fox a few years back, every once in awhile I come across it and it always … ALWAYS makes me smile. She was learning to blend water colour pencils using a wet paint brush. Even that .. I remember being so thrilled with her little gift to me, and the way she was able to take a pencil and blend the colours like she did… that I went out and bought several sets of water colour pencils. I tried, I truly did… but finally I had to face the fact, yes I could colour, but in no way did I have the patience or the necessary “talent” to get the results I wanted.

Another example of my thinking that if I had the tools I can reproduce or do anything. Not true. it is like the time I wanted to try oil painting (my Mom painted in oils)… I lacked the patience to work with oils .. over the years my reality is I like immediate satisfaction/results from the tools that I work with. example, I love multi media products, especially acrylics and the pastes,waxes and powders that allow the artist in me to create in 2, and 3D .. I like texture and form. I want hills, valleys, shadows, lumps, bumps, swirls. I create and express my visuals in abstract.

We all have a need to express ourselves, and each and everyone of us will do so in a different way. If you are like me, you never repeat something exactly the same ..each piece has to be unique to “itself”

Make the best use of materials and money. You can do different things as materials and money play their roles. How to make them work is important.

No two people are alike, nor do they express themselves in the same way. Our form of expression is unique to us.. what is the same and the common thread, is the need to have the ability and outlet to express ourselves. WE all have our own way of expressing ourselves. Do you know what yours is?

youth – memory

arggghhhh I want to freeze this moment in time. I find it so frustrating when talking to “some” people, especially if they are of a younger generation. Their concept of time and mine are just not the same. I get asked what I consider to be the silliest of questions..

A happy moment, my neighbour’s garden is in flower, I am lucky enough to have a couple of very dedicated gardeners nearby.,, what a delight to drive by in the morning and see the beautiful blooms.

“OK guys, we’ve had our breakfast, let’s wander” they casually head off to groom and enjoy the clear blue skies, Life is always better after a visit with the 3 muskateers.

PL philosophy, Every day is a new beginning. Make today count.

new beginnigs

Sitting out in the sunshine yesterday, I marveled at how in just a few days the trees had doubled their foliage, even the magnolia seemed happy in her spring frock of pink/purple blooms. The long week-end just past, traditionally is when the gardeners plant get their summer gardens going, but this year, due to the frost warnings still in effect (overnight).. I heard many are waiting for another week or two for the warmer weather to really take hold.

For me, sitting out on my deck… it was wonderful, cool enough there were NO biting insects.. my guests and I could simply sit and enjoy the sun’s warm rays and the clear sky. I did see the pollen flying about, I’m sure allergy suffers are having to cope. Sending out healing vibes and a happy wave to all.

” Making memories with you, is my favourite thing to do” I found this small card on my studio work table a left over from a card making project I had. I love the thought, and was going to send it to a special friend… then.. the thought came to me that the saying made me smile and think of YOU… so I am posting it here so anyone finding it, and enjoying the sentiment… can share it too.

I feel so blessed, sharing with you over the years… you are locate in far off places some just minutes away, others oceans away, yet… you are all part of the community that I am blessed to have in my life. thank YOU!!

It wasn’t that long ago that there was snow on the ground, these past few days of record breaking warm weather for this time of year has started the “spring cleaning” buzz. Trying to catch some rays on the deck the other day was great till one neighbour started to vacuum up leaves/debris from the winter, which brought on a flurry of activity from another neighbour who decided to power wash his deck. Timing right.

“If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceable with all” Romans 12:18″
Harmony does not require sameness. A single note played simultaneously thru different instruments creates beautiful music when different chords are played.

Every day holds new blessings. Oyashikiri.

harmony

April 11.

It is all about the ice, the ice … it is all about the ice, the ice.

It can be so decorative, so beautiful, just a pain to drive or try to walk on.

You ever wondered .. or asked yourself… how come you can never see your head, (only through a mirror)? or how you look from the back when you are walking away.?

The past leads to now and now leads to the future. Life is an accumulation of moments … cherish each one.

wonders we miss

Good Morning, since it is freezing rain and cold outside, I took to the virtual world to grab a few photos the other day. I posted the lying down resting by an open fire one on Instagram the other day. Just looking at the avatar chilling… squeezed a big sigh out of me… The one on the left is the avatar taking timealong her journey of discovery to dance. The opportunity was there so she took it.

Discover something new today. Have a willingness and an interest, and start your day with excitement.

Dancing is an activity that we do that it is all about the journey .. it is an opportunity to stretch our bodies, lift our arms to the sky, give space to areas in our bodies that have been dormant. It is healthy for us to be active. We get up and move, not to get somewhere but to enjoy the feeling of movement and reconnect with our bodies.

Chilling, taking time to be quiet, allow contemplation (in this example) gaze at the sky, listen to the fire crackling, watch clouds drift by, is that water in the distance, can you hear the sound of a waterfall, are the birds singing, a bee buzzing, allow the mind to drift, wander, if thoughts come, acknowledge them and then let them go… Chilling is making time for YOU.

Explore new thoughts, places, be open to the wonders around you. Do everything willingly and joyfully…
