2008 Copyright. All Rights Reserved to Mariam Muradian. This Outdoor Series was created during the time that my Feral Child and Feral Woman were emerging. I had a claustrophobic time being inside anywhere…even my own house. I could only BREATHE outside. So I spent many days and nights outside. I moved my studio outside. I painted outside only. This series of paintings, I am convinced, cannot live indoors because it will choke the life out of them and they will die; so this series is prepared with heavy heavy sealants to live outdoors forever. I place each one very carefully in their “chosen” place. Each must be a compliment in the truest sense of the word to nature. You can never out-create nature. The series can be vibrant and subdued at the same time, depending on its environment. So once each has found their interconnected, noncompetitive place in the landscape, I watch. I enjoy watching these outdoor paintings live their life! How they communicate and play and change with the light, the blooms, the seasons! It is wondrous to witness! Their subtle variations and transformations are always perfectly, proportionately in sync with nature’s doings. Truly awesome! My ART has reached a Nirvana of sort in this context. It feels so right in my soul. Now you know why I must LIVE outdoors and garden and paint! I have never before felt such passion, such joy, and such inspiration! I continue to paint for this series. I will continue to take photographs of these art pieces as they change, as different colored blooms come to surround them. You must see! Thank you for looking and reading about this ongoing process of healing in my life. Please do comment, as I would love to hear how this effects the Beholder. Thank you. Outdoor Art Series Garden Wall (description for context): Grass and dirt in the lower right corner. To the right of this art piece is a large Japanese Cherry Tree which now has buds that will bloom into beautiful bright pink flowers soon. Just above the art is a flowering tree with white flowers. Ground level to the right is green grass with assorted wildflowers and black dirt and pink wild roses ground cover and white flox ground cover. To the left of this piece is a tall white birch and two creamy white rhododendron bushes. In front and to the left slightly of this art/nature scene is our black/coppery outdoor dining table and chairs with basil leaf motif, the shepherd’s hook with (on sale steal) crystal chandelier/candelabra, and natural strung rope hammock! My garden is the PERFECT place for dining and entertaining. Bocce too! Do come see us! I am just so grateful that I can SEE! That my vision returned from blindness, along with my color vision. That I am alive at all! A miracle and a blessing! See the others in the series /
Sometimes just doing nothing is the most you can do. And the results are out of this world!

Just Past Summer It was a time you let go / And caught the wind / Absent a rudder to slice your way through / Just Past Summer, / You let go of wondering how to Love, / You did. / Colors / Blended into one voice / Truth / Beating swiftly / Like cream does to butter. / Just Past Summer, / A fire as big as a sunset / Was started, / Using all the dried up dreams / And the gutter remains. / Rich you said, / Smell the smoke, / Sacred release. / The ashes you spread out like a table / Serving doubt and loneliness / Featuring a cold vichyssoise that had / A hint of Hope. / This hint you said, / Will complement the rest, / Fear not. / Dessert was three layers of / Rich longing, / Covered with a double dark / Butter cream of Love. / Always Love / You said… / Then off you went, / To catch the boat with no rudder, / On a warm Chinook breeze / That took you to Just Past Summer.

Being able to escape our little town and hike all these different trails is probably the best feeling and activity that we have here in the summer as long as you are a nature lover. Well this image was taken this summer as part of the Musical bumps trails which joins 3 summits at an average of 7500 feet. This circuit is 21 km long and ties in with The Singing Pass trail. / Taken with my handy Canon Xt, sigma 17-35mm lens / Part of this series /

You give me rainbow butterflies / Your hand touches mine and I feel / The wisdom of oak trees line up / And we walk that lane which shines / Both of our spirits on parade Your wings are vibrating those / Colors that catch the light / My eyes are green to emeralds delight / As you listen for my lead / The one I took from our Spirits creed We make a pack of lovers bliss / That all things are possible with / One soulful kiss / That all who know us or come / Our way / Are blessed with knowing / All things are possible / Today. Linaji 2009 All things are possible if we start right now to believe that here in this moment is our POINT OF ATTRACTION / That no matter for how long or what has been going on that does not seem to work can change in an instant if we understand that everything that can ever possibly happen can only happen at this point in time. NOW That everything changes when we start to see that life is suppose to be FUN and we can allow the infinite possibilities to formulate the best path for our desires to manifest. I have never seen this more true than my own life. As everyday I soften my thinking to better feeling thoughts I experience new vista’s to guide me towards that which I am becoming and that which I desire. Today has been such an easy day full of butterfly vibrations and lovely sounds and visions and YOU! xox

YOUR WORK THRILLS ME ALMOST AS MUCH AS HAVING YOU IN MY LIFE.. I APPRECIATE ALL THAT YOU ARE.. LIVING BREATHING WOMAN OF WOMEN. XOX

I particularly loved the back drop for the Rio Tinto Alcan stage! Festival International de Jazz de Montreal is the largest of it’s kind in the world. It is held annually in Montreal, Quebec, CANADA, during the summer season (usually at the end of June and the beginning of July) and gathers artists from around the world. It is typically attended by over 2 million people who are attracted by the electric atmosphere, diversity of shows and by the city itself. Typically there are well over 500 concerts offered during the span of 10 days, from noon to midnight, about 350 of which are outdoors and free to the public. / ~ Wikipedia Nikon D401, Nikkor VR 55-200mm lens, July 9th 2009
