Sally Omar / got inspired by This work and wrote this Poem to go with this Image , Thank you sally / —-—-—-—-- / VIRGIN Her smile like a moonbeam / Eyes like a violet dream / Skin so soft and like milk / Covering her hair with silk / Lips full and ever so red / Words of love never said / Breasts untouched by any hand / Never looked upon by any man / A heart so warm beyond compare / Yet no man has never been near / Her legs so long as she walks / Words so eloquent as she talks / Keeping herself ever so pure / Asking for nothing..wanting more / A woman yet a child / Her temperament so very mild / One day a true love will come along / Sing her a beautiful song / She will give her love so freely / And a VIRGIN she will no longer be.

In quiet light, a golden glow / lasting a hundred perfect heartbeats… Artist’s notes: I have had the wonderful chance of seeing herons actually sunning themselves like this. In fact, there was one day that absolutely struck me with awe about the playfullness of these birds. I was working with a sheetrock crew, and the house we were at was on the banks of the Columbia river. We’d had a series of strange weather incidents in the valley, all of which flooded the river, and actually made a huge mess of it with countless trees/logs, branches, etc. being swept down the mountains and into the water. So for a couple of days, there was an endless log jam floating down the river. I was taking a break at the house during one of those days, and noticed herons standing on the logs floating down the river. They had their wings held out like in my picture above, and they were facing the sun. They would float down just so far, then turn and fly back up river. Next thing you know…here they’d come again… on a new log. All day long these herons kept repeating that cycle, catching rides on the logs while they could…and sunning themselves in the process. I thought that was so interesting and cool. Plus, I love herons anyway…so, it just seemed fitting to add one to this piece. :) (Original, 11×17 300dpi) / FULL VIEW RECOMMENDED* —-—- Stock Credits: model: mjranum-stock http://mjranum-stock.deviantart.com/art/Little-Black-Goth-5-59785430 / Boat and water: sxc.hu http://www.sxc.hu/photo/937674 / wing brushes: faeth-design http://faeth-design.deviantart.com/art/Wing-Brush-74055731 / textures: my own ©2007-2008 Aimee Stewart, Foxfires / My artwork and photos do not belong to the public domain
Acrylic On Canvas Concept: Ophelia having some solitude, she’s meditating on what love is all about…love between lovers, between friends, between parents and children, between teacher and students, between owners and their pets and etc….the greatest love is when one is willing to lay down his/her life(others-seeking and not self-seeking) for another person whom he/she loves. While painting this, it also reminds me of a famous chinese love tale, “The Butterfly Lovers”....thus a pair of butterflies. It is a tragic tale about how a couple could only find their love bliss after they pass on and both became butterflies.I’m contented to have found my bliss :D View my other “Love Meditations” creations at my Zazzle store:

I ALSO HAVE THE HONOR OF INTRODUCING YOU TO A WONDERFUL POET/ARTIST UFOSISEE WHO WROTE THIS PIECE TO GO WITH THE IMAGE.. FAULT LINES I / BY UFOSISEE / 2008 I always treasured the days of my past / But now the future holds a battered blast / Oh it dances a tango to tap a contrast / Who knows the significance or if I will last / The page from sage has been turned by age / And my so called intelligence fills this cage / Inside alone, my roars loud anger and rage / But quiet to a crowd that surrounds my stage / So the only colors I see are RED and BLUE / That holds an ocean of the deepest rue / If I try to escape, the land is of red goo / Stuck to the tones of torture like glue / How many questions she hides and declines / By road blocks that are steepened with more inclines / Face tracks, like maps, a path of tears that defines / Travel if you dare, this equator my heart along the fault lines. I am pleased by RB’s spirit of COLLABORATION it is wonderful feeling. One more person who heard the call came to me with this very different take on the art. I have know and admired his art for quite sometime …. Tony aka Anthony Plastino III His take was off the wall WONDERFUL!! He got me to thinking, Tony does that to me!! FAULT LINES II / Anthony Plastino / 2008 Sitting… was she sitting? / Maybe, well singing… wait… was she? / Oh GOD what has happened here? Okay, then when she sat… Wait – could she? / How then was it that this phasing / pulsing, melt okay, So she was singing… wait, who could hear? / No-one there, the tree fell and … no / It didn’t make a sound. Hey! / ... / ... / Wait! Come back… the angel was… / yeah, ok… / bye FAULT LINESIII / By Greg aka megrag53 A victim of self-inflicted wounds / I see / a sadness in her eyes. / The windows to her soul / are fogged . / Bad choices / have consequences / that reach deeply inside. / Shadowing the hope / I know / is still there. Fault Lines VI / By CJ LEWIS / 2008 Sadness of eyes reflecting / Fault lines of past mistakes / Did it really happen / Or perchance a dream that fades / Looking back brings depression / To the door of being / Once more / Through forgetting / Where life lies at present / With the Breath each day / Stop hindering the simplicity of being / By life presented in moments of now / Take only what is in the present / With lessons learnt / Let the fault lines / Fade / To where they belong / And where history should stay… / With past days MUSIC BY..CAROL KING

PLEASE VIEW LARGE.. !! This was taken early in the morning as we arrived for our journey to the Elephant Seal area. Mists and light and Peace. Taken in the Año Nuevo SNR State Natural Reserve Northern California / ELEPHANT SEAL AFTERNOON I have used this form of morning meditation for quite some time and feel the ease of this practice and results in a more generous day with better focus. This is a meditation to begin the day. In a seated pose, focus on your breath. Cultivate a steady, relaxed breath. Then ask yourself: What is my intention today? After posing the question, rest your attention on the out-breath. This creates a spaciousness of attention on the in-breath. There is no direction for the in-breath. Do not get carried away by thinking, but also do no tightly control the attention. Continue to notice each out breath. Sit until you are struck by a clarity of intention. It comes not by chasing it down with thinking, but by stilling the mind and creating space. It may take a few minutes, or much longer. If no specific intention announces itself to you, simply commit to acting ethically and with mindfulness. That is certainly an intention that we can all practice each day. This meditation seems simple, and it is simple. It’s power lies in its ability to help us act intentionally throughout the day. If you practice this meditation each morning, you will find yourself more ‘awake’ behind the wheel of your life*.
/ Medium Size Print/Cherry Frame/Off White Matt Watercolour crayons, watercolour pencils, faber castell pencils, ink, acrylic, wax, gesso acrylic, chalk pastel, pen, charcoal on paper This began as a drawing while on holiday at an island resort, it’s one of those paintings that seemed to have a mind of it’s own, and wanted to be painted a certain way…even though I had different ideas, this is the end result. LOL I was originally going to colour her very gently with wax and soft pastels…but she became more and more vibrant as I went along. Perhaps the colouring says something of how vibrant we become when we are well rested, balanced and relaxed.
