are a lovely muse for my art,

Yea and thank you one and all!

Sunday Sketches

Greetings dear art friends,

this week i cleaned out my ink pen

got the ink flowing

and challenged myself to sketch

 this means

no pencil

no erasing

living with each and every line

living with what is

I enjoyed imagining

each line on the paper

before I ever let the pen begin

Sunday Night begins the 

ONE WORLD ONE HEART event

I would love it if you would visit my post, by clicking on this link: OWOH

and leave a comment to be entered in my give away!

(and to see my latest piece of art ;-} )

~

Please join us at Sophia's Sunday Sketches

to share your art

and/or to enjoy the art of my artist friends!

Heart, the Natural Art

live with heart

the natural art

feel alive

and akin

within

~

as Valentine's day approaches

I find myself wanting to let the human heart

the universal and divine heart

influence my art

I forgot to take a scan of my original sketch, 

still I share this for:

Sophia's  Sunday Sketches

Hearts

~

this heartful lady is my first nudie cutie

I finished her before the piece in the last post.....

I look at her and wish I could change her face,

but decided to share her anyway. 

She has a slinky body like the fisher I saw a week ago.

Will any of you be participating in the upcoming 

One World One Heart Event?

♥♡♥

It starts January 30th 

this will be the 5th and last year. 

It is a wonderful way to meet lots of lovely people

from all over the world!

She Says

fly to the light
she says

sun light
star light
inner light

let it fill each cell
of your body

bathe in it's glory

then exhale this light
with every breath
into our lovely world

nourish and be nourished
in this intimate exchange
with light
~

Our days have been gray and rainy

funny thing, no sunlight

so I had to scan this and you can not tell that it is shimmery paint

*

On Sunday treat yourself and visit Sophia's

Blue Chair Diary 

where artist share their sketches

or even join us!

Born as Two, Spirit of One

 in her spirit
lives a wolf
keenly in tune
with the tapestry of life
willing to share
with those experiencing strife
they
born as two
yet spirit of one
sharing silver hearts
as they wander wild parts
of our land

~

to enjoy sketches from wonderful artists... 

visit: Blue Chair Diary's Sunday Sketches

yesterday

following tracks in the woods

I stirred up a mammal, that is new to me

we think it is a mink:

so fun to see!

Listening ~

 

 listening to the spirit
that lies beneath

allowing it's languid and lively presence
to permeate awareness
as well as stance

grace rises
within each breath

each step becoming vital 

a true place to allow life
to rise from

abiding in a heart of tender knowing

deep peace

~

As we enter 2011

I wish you a year that feels wonderful to you

may you have courage to honor your dreams

your highest truth

I feel thankful for your kind friendship 

the ways you have shared with me

the ways we grow and learn together

thank you all for sharing 2010 with me

I look forward to a lovely 2011 with each and every one of you

with heartfelt warmth, 

Tammie
