We all cheer for something. This is a little bit different than my typical art, however I just wanted to share this. Shot these pics a couple hours ago. This is my oldest daughter (16 years old,) cheering at her highschool football game. Thought it made a nice inspirational or motivational piece.

“DARE TO BE DIFFERENT” makes the perfect gift for the independent individual in your life. Could that be you? The image features a photograph of a real White Raven (also known as a “Spirit Raven” by local Haida people) born in May, 2008 on Vancouver Island, B.C., Canada. He is one of two rare white and 3 black Ravens born to 2 accepting (black) parents. The two rare birds are not albino which is what makes them so unusual. Their eyes are quite blue. All 5 siblings are getting along extremely well and all are thriving. White Ravens are very rare and hold sacred meaning for many groups and cultures throughout the World, including Native American Indian, Celtic, Norse and Wiccans. This artwork is another tribute to these remarkably intelligent and friendly birds. 50% proceeds from all sales go to the Mountainaire Avian Society in the beautiful Comox Valley on Vancouver Island.

Yesterday, as a spur of the moment thing, i decided to see whether i actually had enough inpsired works to create a calendar that would really speak to the heart and the soul…something of meaning…..something about the journey of life Hence the Inspired Calendar was born and uploaded to red bubble yesterday A collection of my deep and meaningful mixed media paintings…. to read more about the inspiration for each one, please read the description/explanation or click on the linkety links below to see the art more closely / Jan Pilgrimage / I began the calendar with this one, because it represents the Journey of Life, and here it can represent for you the beginning of a new year, a chance to start over and begin anew, leaving behind the old things and beginning a brand new journey, it is a good time to think about your goals for the coming year and write them down / Feb Seasons / This one comes next as a reminder that for everything, there is a season, a time to live, a time to die, a time to laugh, a time to sing….and the list goes on and on, you will probably experience most of these things throughout the year, this painting is a reminder that these things come and go, as do the seasons, to help you find strength and resilience to cope…if we know our troubled times don’t last forever we can cope with them better, knowing they are finite, and if we know the good times don’t last forever, we will enjoy them more for every moment they are with us / Mar Hidden Treasure / To remind us to look deeper and go further than just our initial response to a person’s presentation… people are far more complex and interesting once you get to know all the different facets of their nature, to remind us not to be quick to judge, ponder a person a little longer….we can be quick to judge and pidgeon hold people with little regard to how complex life is, and most people are really trying hard to be the best they can…try a little kindness…look for the hidden treasure in everyone / Apr Heart of Gold / We are all searching for people with a heart of gold, people who will be true and trustworthy…they exist, don’t give up and become cynical about life too early, you might be surprised if you keep your eyes peeled, that there is still some good in this world (also heavily inspired by the novel “Sylvia” by Bryce Courtney) / May Flying Machine / A semi self portrait to remind us, that all things are achievable, even things we sometimes never considered before, to remain open to suggestion from others, don’t put up all your walls at once and refuse to listen, be open…listen to advice, use what you can and throw the rest away…don’t allow critisicm to blind you to what good might be hidden within what people are suggesting, but do not hold onto it so that you bash yourself up and become embittered by it…sometimes people have unclear motives and you are best not to pay to much attention to their choice of words..and what they have spoken over you can be a spell that heightens your own dislike of yourself… we are ourselves our own harshest critics in general…so be kind to yourself / Jun Midnight Blues another semi self portrait, but not of my face, this is my soul…the soul/spirit….this is on a blue day, a day when i think large thoughts and ponder the universe…a reminder of the times when sometimes we need a quiet place and a little music to space out for a while under the stars and moon and gain a little perspective on things…..go and live in another place in your mind’s eye for a little while, i often transport myself to the beach and lie on my towel on the sand, absorbing the suns rays, and feel a trillion zillion times better after that…....or i deliver myself to a deserted island where sky meets water in an endless aqua haze, a soft breeze kissing my cheek and hugging my skin, and the rustle of palm leaves comforts me as does the smell of the salty sea and fallen ripening coconuts rotting in the sand…i hear the water as it gently laps the sand, and my heart is made calm / Jul Polly’s Pearls / This one represents the search in life for the greatest treasure of all, the pearl of great price, that thing that we’ll give up everything else for….the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, the hopes and dreams that we strive for, and it shows the intensity with which we need to look for it and strive….this is the journey….sometimes fraught with danger, but an important journey nontheless, the struggle against complacency / Aug Titian Blonde / This is like a dreamscape of desire for me, the desire to be free of my shackles and chains… if one wishes to stand on a mountain in the middle of darkness under a starry night, and contemplate flying across the sea with the wind blowing their hair, then why shouldn’t that be a possiblity….come fly with me, across the ocean deep, where troubles dissipate beneath your feet…. / Sep Still Waters / to remind us to rest and take it easy…sometimes the waters are still and calm, and we feel a sense of lostness less the business and buffeting of the waves we normally find some resistance in, a reminder to let go, and just ‘be’, a reminder to simply enjoy the silence and stillness / Oct iliki Spirit of Aloha / a reminder to embody the spirit of aloha, to display aloha to others and throughout your life “Akahai,” meaning kindness, / to be expressed with tenderness; “Lokahi,” meaning unity, / to be expressed with harmony; “Oluolu,” meaning agreeable, / to be expressed with pleasantness; “Haahaa,” meaning humility, / to be expressed with modesty; “Ahonui,” meaning patience, / to be expressed with perseverance. These are traits of character that express the charm, warmth and sincerity of Hawaii’s people. It was the working philosophy of Native Hawaiians and was presented as a gift to the people of Hawaii. “Aloha” is more than a word of greeting or farewell or a salutation. “Aloha” means mutual regard and affection and extends warmth in caring with no obligation in return. “Aloha” is the essence of relationships in which each person is important to every other person for collective existence. “Aloha” means to hear what is not said, to see what cannot be seen and to know the unknowable. Iliki was also heavily inspired by the novel “Hawaii” by James Michener / Nov Thoughts Become Things / A reminder that Thoughts do become Things, so take time to ponder your thoughts and where they may lead, don’t spend too much time rushing about, sit and be still for a time, allow your mind to fill with new ideas and ways to achieve them, keep up your creative spirit…enchant me, enchant others…bring life to old things…bring joy to others / Dec Cross Your Heart / Remember others, be otherly…but remember to take care of your own heart first, so that it is well and whole and healthy….strive for goodness and kindness and loveliness…our world is troubled, hasn’t it always been though….but through this be a light and a beacon to others, for what other reason is there than this…. take care of you, so that you can share your wellness, creativity, love for life and encouragement with others… and goodness and kindness will follow….like karma….and even when it doesn’t seem to, remember always, that you have deposited some good…and this is enough :) Other Christmas cards and art by Karin /

© C J Lewis. Photograph of tree trunk digitally altered. BEST VIEWED LARGE There’s spirit in everything … even trees :) Tree Spirit Is a digital painting done on the computer using PhotoPlus 6 software. I have used the original photograph of a tree and added a slight colour filter over it to bring out the texture and life of the tree which to me shows living energy within it in the form of what appears to be a weary soul resting within the tree who may be lost within the energy of the life of the tree. A ‘black sheep’ of a family possibly lost within the ethers. THIS ART IS NOT FOR SALE (apart from as a card) AS IT FORMED PART OF MY WELL ROOTED SOLO EXHIBITION AND AS SUCH ONLY ONE MATTED PRINT IS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE THROUGH CONTACTING ME HERE FOR FURTHER DETAILS. / MCN:C9936-2DC11-02B62

© C J Lewis, 2009. Digitally altered photograph of tree trunk. Fire Spirits Of The Forest Is a digital painting done on the computer using PhotoPlus 6 software. I have used the original photograph of a tree and added colour filters and the smudge tool to move that colour around to create what depicts a forest on fire showing the spirits within the forest that are present during the destruction by fire. The white lights within the fire are pure cleansing energies clearing out the dark spirits before the re-growth of the forest ready for a new beginning. To me it depicts the cleansing of life through death as pure energy is reconstructed through the birth of a new forest that comes with re-growth … much the same as life after to death, in my belief.
