SPIRITS Author: :Sally Omar”:http://www.redbubble.com/people/tweetheartltd Spirits sitting side by side / Where all can see / They do not hide / They are where they want to be / After years of having run together / Happy to be free / Running in all kinds of weather / Neighing softly nose to nose / Not moving / From their happy pose / I have seen them disappear / When I turned / They were no longer there / Just looking at them you have to know / Their love for each other has never ceased / They must be together in death so / They can have true peace

Moondance by Geoff Coleman
I was driving along a road in a seaside town at Jervis Bay, just 2.5 hours south of Sydney Australia when I glimpsed this moon through some trees with a pathway of silver light across the water. A lucky moment, in that all the elements were there but tricky in putting them together because it was so dark I couldn’t see anything through the viewfinder and had to keep taking pics, viewing them on the LCD display and then moving the tripod to get the composition I wanted. / It looks to me like the trees on either side of the moon are partners about to dance onto the floor of some enchanted ballroom.

Looking Back by gemlenz
When you look back on your life, is the best time to remember those experiences that have shaped you, and those who contributed to your life over the years. Learn from them, and those experiences to help make the world a better place as you look forward. A grandpa’s wisdom, and it’s free.

Edith by Boyd Miller
Edith Edith died the day after this photo was taken, alone in a nursing home. This beautiful woman in the painting is a surrogate for my mother who passed away 5 years ago. I cared for my mother the last 7 years of her life. I have not the courage yet to try to do her portrait, and instead put my emotions into the image of Edith. The story of how she arrived in my life is worth telling. About two months after a mild heart attack I took some newspapers to the local recycling center. One blew off the top and flew across the parking lot, a street, and into a park, landing in a rose bush. I was pissed, being in a generally grumpy “poor me” state of mind at the time. I was not feeling too well and had the responsibility for my desperately ill mother, poor me. I retrieved the errant newspaper sheet and when I looked at it there was this image of an old woman holding a teddy bear. The story was about how sad it was that old persons like Edith had to die alone in nursing homes. Edith came to me at an important time. She became an affirmation that I was doing the right thing in caring for my mom, no matter how difficult. I tore the image from the newspaper and put it in my wind breaker pocket. / / After my Mother died l was cleaning out her closet and found my windbreaker. She must have worn it and put it there, her mind was very forgetful. Then I found the newspaper article in the pocket. Again Edith visited me at precisely the right time. There are no accidents. It was another affirmation. I had kept my promise. My mother had died at home, in the arms of her children. I used the image of Edith to create this painting with permission of the photographer Gregg. It captures my deep love for my mom and sadness for her passing. And, there is an archtypal nobleness to the image. Perhaps Edith is everyones mom, holding us tenderly. This watercolor painting hangs above my bed.

The Miracle of Creation II by Uzume
2nd Image… One of my Best Friends is Pregnant and so I was Shocked about that sort of news… Just isn’t something you expect a Friend to say to you out of the blue… I have always respected Women and the Gift they possess for Creation of Life… So its been on my Mind for the last few days and due to lack of inspiration the past week or so for new art work I decided to Alter a few of my older Works that would work well with Creation of Life and a Womans Form, Body…. and to try and celebrate that in my own way… I know the idea behind the images are not new and a Popular example of something like My images is that of “2001: A Space Odyssey” but that Image has always been in my mind ever since I first saw the Movie god knows how long ago… so is about time and I think is the right time since my Friends news that I make a few of my own… Will try and think about a new image from scratch with this idea in mind… This is the 2nd Image I have made on this idea…

Little Wonders by Alexia Wardell
... ” Our lives are made in these small hours, in these little wonders. These twists and turns of fate. Time falls away, but these small hours.. these small hours still remain…” Excerpt from the Song “Little Wonders” by Rob Thomas. This song always makes me think of my son, who is walking along the beach in this shot.

Kindle My Heart by Alexia Wardell
“Kindle My Heart” is a song I sing to my son sometimes before he goes to Bed. / Words and music by Patrick Doyle / “As the moon kindles the night / As the wind kindles the fire / As the rain fills every ocean / and the sun, the earth, / So your heart kindles my heart. / Take my heart / Take my heart / Kindle it with your heart / And my heart, / can not be kindle without you / so your heart kindles my heart”

Violence... by Mel Spittall
My poor partner after being koncked out in an unprovoked attack in Surfers Paradise by a random stranger. I treated the image in PS as i was trying to create an image to embody the feeling of “Violence”… I sat in emergency with Brad for 5 hours. An unbelievable three quarters of the people that came in were assult victoms…not only that, but seeing the states these people were in really affected me. WHEN PEOPLE HURT YOU, / HEAL THEIR SICKNESS OF DISHARMONY BY KINDNESS, / UNDERSTANDING AND TRUTH…. / RESENT NO ONE…. / BY RESENTING OTHERS WE ONLY BELITTLE OURSELVES.

About This Group
I believe that the ability to feel is the most amazing gift that anyone could be given. Further I believe creative people are the most deeply sensitive people in the community. The primary direction of this group is to bring together as many creative people as possible and to encourage them to spark a creative evolution of sorts.
In order to truly make the most of our creative gifts I believe we need to bring stability to the ability we have been given. So many creatively gifted people seem to live their material lives as victims to the source of their talents. We tend to struggle for our art or even believe we have to be in chaos to actually produce genius.
This group wishes to change this perception. I am encouraging the people in this group to become as deeply self reflective as they are deep in feeling. To become passionate about understanding the feelings and moods that spark our flair. As part of this passion I would like people to challenge their own conditioned beliefs about being creative and also the general conditioning of the world.
My personal opinion is that those who feel the deepest are amongst the most insecure in the community. However if we really go deep in our thinking we can bring stability to the amazing gift of feeling that we have. The present society we live in lacks so much passion and freedom. I believe that those of us with creative flair and a determination to understand this flair can spark a truly inspiring creative evolution in the community.
Please note that with submissions this is a group for only your most inspiring work. Therefore many submissions will not be accepted. This also means that this group for some will be as much about viewing the works of others as it will be about submitting work. However I believe viewing and expanding on the creativity of others is a very important part of evolving your own work and your own emotional maturity.
GUIDELINES;
No more than 4 pieces of work submitted per week per artist. Work can be writing [no more than 500 words], photography, painting..in fact anything so long as it is aimed at inspiration. Would also encourage people to submit some words with their visuals explaining the inspiration behind the image.
With regards to inspiration I am looking for visuals and words that inspire us to go deep in feeling and thought. I am looking for work inspired by people who believe in humanity and the concept of relationship. Creative work can inspire by it’s sheer beauty or can be targeted towards bringing awareness to areas of life that you feel could be improved.Further you may wish to highlight areas of life that you believe are already empowering society.
In general I am drawn to honesty, humility and passion. With photos I would encourage people to endeavour to present subjects in a real in the moment type of mood rather than anything too contrived. Whilst I personally find nudes to be empowering I believe that there are so many aspects of life that create empowerment. Architecture, nature, animals, automobiles, relationships …the list is endless.
All work must be approved prior to uploading on the site. Further this group is not about people wanting validation for their work. It is about people wanting to inspire others both with their own creations and with their views on the works of others. I want this group to be of sharing and co creating.
