Professional Fine Artist Network

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

For you, fine artist bloggers, I’ve found another great place for professional artists to network and to promote themselves. No, pFAn (their acronym) is not paying me for the advertising plug, I think of it as another way to promote yourself, if you’re an artist and it’s free until the end of the year! We artists, who are depending on our livelihood, should check it out. I’m an artist that shares and every artist has something to share and the world is big enough for all of us to do so.

Professional Artist Network is a networking index for fine artists and consultants working in the hospitality, healthcare, corporate and public art sectors.

It is located at: http://professionalfineartnetwork.blogspot.com

My art process is a transformative blending of materials, light and spiritual intent. My creations are a healing meditation, a living gateway that combines the varied language of symbolism. The finished painting is usually 10-20 layers of sheer color with delicate glazes. The artistic techniques are a fusion of many traditional forms of creating art.

Music

Saturday, November 21st, 2009

There is much written about music, and the only thing I can add is, listen to it with gusto, with your heart; your feet are bound to follow.

The beat of a heart is music and so precious, embrace it!

Peace.

Unbalanced

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

I keep believing in hope and putting my trust in love and praying to God, that the “unbalanced” that plagues my dear ones (cancer) will disappear and the light will hold us and be with us. It is an unbalanced, much like a walk on a tightrope, that I’m finding hard to bear.

I pray for all of you who cope with this and know that hope springs eternal. Peace.

The Blur of Color…

Saturday, November 7th, 2009

My use of color is an attempt to create my own physical harmony, hopefully, as a way to tap into the resources of mental, emotional and even spiritual energies that sustain me, which enable me to stay sane.

Hmmm…so much for poetic musing! The bottom line is if I don’t color in and outside the lines, I go crazy!

So Viola! the blur of my lines.
