Cultivating: Enchantment

Sunday, March 20th, 2011

My soul has an absolute and relentless need for trips into enchantment. It requires, enchantment like the body needs food and the mind needs thought to survive.

But, I am bombarded daily, by a culture who prides itself on disapproving and explaining the sources of enchantment. Our society is  always explaining away every mystery, one after another, under the guise of  sophistication, the need to grow-up and the need to appear intelligent. As if indulging in the imagination, is not any of these things!

I often wonder, is this why American culture is so obsessed with the fear of aging?  Instead, we only need to hold on to all things that keep up carefree, naive and questioning…the magic of enchantment.

Feeling philosophical or not today, cultivate your enchantment…daily…it improves the quality of life.

Peace to you and yours.

Wrapped-IF

For me, there is a mysteriousness, magical quality to being wrapped in knowledge, creativity and intelligence.

I live In a society, where videos and fashion deems that less is better, I like the idea of being “wrapped“.

Putting politics, religion and power issues aside, I love the beauty of these women, wrapped, I created them as Muses, contemplative, looking to be called, ready to encourage all forms of creativity.

(The original painting “3 Muses” was created and sold in 2008).

Today, wrap yourself in the creativity of your muse. Peace to you all.
