  • The birds were plentiful. The reflections looked wonderful. Come to Serendip anyone who’s passing through Geelong.

  • On a visit to the Jardin Botanique in Montreal I was captivated by the Chinese Garden. Various ponds and streams had huge floating islands of lily pads. But it was not until I rested that I discovered these two lily pads and the reflections, just over the side of the bench I was sitting on. Taken in macro mode. Nikon D40, 18-55mm lens. “Life is not merely a series of meaningless accidents or coincidences, but rather it is a tapestry of acts that culminate in an exquisite, sublime plan.” -from the movie Serendipity Featured in the Natural Color and Light group February 2009 / Avatar for Nirvana group December 2008 / Featured in the Abstracts From Nature group July 2008.

  • Serendipity is the phenomenon of finding valuable or agreeable things not sought for – which pretty much describes the origin of this image. / I took a pond side flower photo…added a pinch of Corel Paint Shop Pro “seamless tiling”, then a dash of Adobe PS “water ripples”, baked it at 350 degrees for a few minutes and Voila… serendipity!!!

  • Serendipity is the effect by which one accidentally discovers something fortunate, especially while looking for something else entirely.

  • Oil on canvas, 30×40 This is a portrait of a young lady that used to model for me in California, and this was from a photo taken on our first photoshoot near Three Rivers, CA. We had actually finished for the day and were headed home when I saw these “Farewell to Spring” flowers on the side of the road. They get their name because they always bloom in late May, just as the weather starts getting hot.

  • Watercolour painting on Arches 18” x 24” cold press paper The Serendipity Gardens Cafe in Rossport, Open All Year as the sign proudly says during a snowy, blustery, winter day, with flags and ribbons whipping about in the brisk wind. Located on the north shore of Lake Superior in Ontario, Canada

  • Many years ago, sometime in the early 1990’s, my husband and I were travelling through Hopi land, outside of Truth or Consequences, Arizona and happened upon a Tribal officer while camping, and we shared a pot of coffee with him. In our conversation, he noticed a basket of sacred white sage, that I usually wrapped while we drove through the countryside, prompting him to telling us about Oraibi, the oldest (still standing) native site in the U.S. He continued by telling us of a gathering there on the following day, and that he’d like to invite us to attend and we wholeheartedly agreed. / We started our morning having a traditional Hopi breakfast of Frybread, black beans and eggs, then we drove up to the Mesas, ignoring the signs that read “No White Man beyond this point”, we drove up a winding road, while I wrapped and was burning sage. When we reached the dwellings, many people were coming out of their homes and surrounding our hippie van (‘78 Dodge). It turns out they had not had white sage (grandmother sage) growing on their land for a couple of years, so when they smelled it coming from our vehicle they had to investigate. Thank Creator that it grew like weeds on our property in California, and we had plenty with us. We gifted several people with wrapped bundles, while others wished to trade for torquoise, blue corn and dye-making instruction. It was a wonderful morning, and we felt good that they mentioned it was a significant gift for the upcoming gathering, which they also invited us to attend. / After eating lunch with a beautiful Hopi family, we drove down the Mesa, following our new friends to Oraibi. When we arrived, there were maybe a dozen people standing around, we got out of the van and an elder man in jeans, a flannel shirt and a bandana around his head, approached us, as I held out a small basket of bundled sage, he just smiled. He took the basket in his roughly worn hands and motioned for us to follow him. We sat down in a circle with what grew to about 30 people, at this time and another man began speaking about the Earth and introduced the elderly man as the authorized spokesperson to speak on behalf of the Elders of the Hopi Nation – Thomas Banyacaya. / I was actually aware of who this elder was, and shocked that I was standing beside him as he was to address a chosen group of tribal and non-tribal (us) members, which was now about 75 people. This humble man would share a message of clear intent and great importance… We are the One’s we have been waiting for… / We have been telling the people that this is the eleventh hour. Now you must go back and tell the people that this is the hour. And there are things to be considered: / Where are you living? / What are you doing? / What are your relationships? / Are you in right relationship? / Know your garden. It is time to speak your truth. Create your community. Be good to each other. And do not look outside yourself for a leader. This could be a good time. / There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold onto the shore. They will feel they are being torn apart and they will suffer greatly. / Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore and push off into the river. Keep your eyes open and your head above water. See who is in there with you and celebrate. / At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally. Least of all ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey come to a halt. / The time of the Lone Wolf is over. Gather yourselves! / Banish the word struggle from your attitude and your vocabulary. / All that you do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration. / We are the one’s we have been waiting for.” This artwork is a symbol of the rain deity that I remembered from a rock drawing we saw while at Hopi land, near Betatakin. Drawn, photographed, then painted in photoshop7 (it is also the T-shirt design called Earth Tribe with a slight alteration) All, all and everything is of importance and nothing that is good happens fast. Thanks to my serendipitous sister, owlspook, a link providing the same message ;) New Hopi Prayer

  • Lomo capture November 2009 Titled Serendipity because this leaf fell on my windshield as I was driving to work. I pulled over and had just enough time to snap the shot before the wind took it away again! I spent the rest of the day looking for pretty leaves and nice places to park to try and recreate the shot. Of all the photos I took, my “Serendipty” moment turned out the best! Canon Rebel xt Featured in Made By Nature on 11/29/2009 Top 10 placing in Made by Naure
