Some morning advice from my Self to myself Live as if you have never lived before / Love as if you have the whole Universe to give / Play with abandon like you are three again / Laugh as if God tickled your heart / Cry for the beauty of one flower at a time, / While knowing there are millions like it Live as if you will never live thereafter / Love like a wildfire, never to be contained / Play as if you have only yourself around / Laugh with your eyes, hearing the giggle of the child in you / Cry for the music in you, awakened by the sunrise / that follows a starry night Burn at the speed of tomorrow coming to / devour you anew with another wild day at heart. / Brush your teeth with the paste of Eternity / condensed into the moment. Live your soul. Out loud. / Love from within. The infinite in you. / Play with the universe. In stride. / Laugh silently. In your Song. / Cry for no-Reason. To forget. But never, never sleep. Inside Be! / The fire. / —- / 25 April 2009 —-—-—-—-—-——- Featured on RedBubble homepage on 12 August 2008 —- Featured in Abstract Digital Art and Writing Group on 27 April 2009 —- Featured in Dimensions Group —- / —-—-—-—-—-——- / /

The jaguar is a near threatened species and its numbers are declining. Threats include habitat loss and fragmentation. While international trade in jaguars or their parts is prohibited, the cat is still regularly killed by humans, particularly in conflicts with ranchers and farmers in South America. Although reduced, its range remains large; given its historical distribution, the jaguar has featured prominently in the mythology of numerous indigenous American cultures, including that of the Maya and Aztec. / (from Wikipedia) /
Most of the windows in this place were either cracked, broken or completely removed. It made for some eerie nosies when walking about in the place with the wind rattling through and the curtains flapping about etc.
before sleep I simply had to get this idea out.
“That which the dream shows is the shadow of such wisdom as exists in man, even if during his waking state he may know nothing about it…. We do not know it because we are fooling away our time with outward and perishing things, and are asleep in regard to that which is real within ourself.” / ~Paracelsus / —-—-—-—-—— / photo taken at tedford power plant / more photos online at www.abandonedamerica.org
Oil on canvas 24” X 24”. Completed April 2008. www.RainbowPathArtStudio.com “All living beings have the Buddha nature and can become Buddhas” / – Buddha Buddha Within illustrates the story of personal awakening. My understanding of the personal awakening process is that when undergoing the final awakening stage, the kundalini (rainbow serpent) becomes an intense fire (red/orange beside the tree trunk) shooting through the spine engulfing the body. The energy (green vortexes) required is enormous. As the kundalini reaches the crown chakra, it fully opens and all earthly limitations drop away. This being is no longer tied to a religion or faith but now embraces them all as represented by the sacred symbols in the tree. The consciousness now resides in the higher self and is one with the universe and all that is. When the transformation is complete sonic waves (the four vertical crystalline waves) travel out into the universe to let all of creation know of the grace that has taken place. All life is naturally drawn to the radiant and divine being that has become pure Buddha consciousness (centre). At each of the chakra points on the Buddha is a Swarovsky crystal in the relevant chakra colour. Crystal magnifies the properties of the chakra energy. / Buddha Within is divided into four quadrants (earth, fire, water, air) and the five elements including precious metals (bottom corners). The red veins dividing the quadrants represent the lower dimension (inner earth). The higher dimension is represented by the white equilateral triangle. If you look closely, you can see the texture of the underlying branches in the tree. These were meticulous painted before adding the covering of leaves. The tree must be complete in the physical, in order to emit the complete energy of the life form. Imbibed in the painting is sand from a sand mandala created by Gyuto Monks. They had spent a week painstakingly building an exquisite sand mandala. Upon its completion the mandala was ceremonially deconstructed and the sand poured into the local river for healing, accompanied by prayer and the blasting of Tibetan ceremonial horns. Some of the sand is held back and distributed to those who attend the ceremony: it holds sacred healing properties. I used some of the sand from this mandala, mixing it in the purple paint used for the crown charka encircling the white triangle and Buddha. Buddha Within is the third in a series and preceded by The Dream and The Awakening.
Oils on stretched canvas 1.02mx1.02m 2004 / Collection of the artist. This painting represents my interpretation of the Celtic Horse Goddess, Epona – a blending of the feminine within what appears to be a masculine horse, the woman’s silhouette in black combined with the white of the horse, yin & yang. Her hand & hair flow into the mane like tree roots, she is part of the earth, yet also the air – mythical, magical yet also a part of Mother Nature. Look on top of the mountain – for the snowline is in the shape of a horse lying on its side. My inspiration for this painting was my love of coloured horses, actually one of my own blue-eyed Paints. No two Paint Horses are alike, each has it’s own unique colour & pattern. Often where the hair colours meet the markings will have an outline which is known as a ‘watermark’. This one is grey – (black blended into white). In Paint Horse terms the above horse would be called a ‘splash white overo.’ This painting won a Highly Commended & two People’s Choice awards. / Featured in SIMPLY HORSES GROUP – December 2008 / Featured in THE DIVINE FEMININE GROUP – May 2009 / Top Ten in Elemental Goddess Challenge THE DIVINE FEMINE GROUP – May 2009 / Featured in ALL THOSE COLOURFUL PAINTS & PINTOS – June 2009 / Featured in OIL PAINTING GROUP – August 2009 / Top Ten in Most Creative Painted Ladies Challenge – PAINTED LADIES GROUP – September 2009

Withininyouwithoutyou We were talking-about the space between us all / And the people-who hide themselves behind a wall of illusion / Never glimpse the truth-then it’s far too late-when they pass away. / We were talking-about the love we all could share-when we find it / To try our best to hold it there-with our love / With our love-we could save the world-if they only knew. / Try to realize it’s all within yourself / No-one else can make you change / And to see you’re really only very small, / And life flows ON within you and without you. / We were talking-about the love that’s gone so cold and the people, / Who gain the world and lose their soul- / They don’t know-they can’t see-are you one of them? / When you’ve seen beyond yourself-then you may find, peace of mind, / Is waiting there- / And the time will come when you see / we’re all one, and life flows on within you and without you. / Copyright the beatles

Some things go so deep you lose your voice from the pain that the hurt causes. This is symbolism for such pain. Thanks for Looking.
