Totem

kinship with life
a quiet art

walking earth as solid ground
wild companions all around
wind and tree point the way
to a listening heart
that does not sway

still smitten with ink and brush:

This piece came from a guided meditation with Goddess Leonie
from 21 Secrets.

I listened to Leonie's half hour meditation
lying in a meadow, climbing a mountain, conversing with my wise elder self.

Her theme being: You are beautiful just as you are!

These are the animals that were with me on my journey.
I sat with the idea of making a journal page, this is what came to me,
to make my very own totem pole.
It was challenging to sketch animals and learn to paint them, yet quite satisfying to complete.

 Goddess Leonie radiates the essence of us being beautiful just as we are,
which assists to experience the truth of what she shares.

piece was done with sumi ink with a watercolor brush

to look within

to listen with heart

brings us present

to the magical arts

do you like one more than another?

I would love to hear which one and why. 

I ask simply for fun, to get to see through your eyes. 

I know we all have different taste, 

I would love to broaden my perception through you.

5 Braids

gazing
into the distant horizon
trusting
in the breath of the moment
feeling
the depth of endless potential
embracing
the woven textures of life

braids
~

desire to draw a braid rose

it was a hard puzzle to figure out

if only i looked in the mirror at mine!

5 Braids is a sumi ink sketch

there is something freeing about each line being what it is

no erasing and refining

in this moment, my world
Spring Snow:
