As Artists

August 17

As artists, things change all the time, and flexibility is a tool used as often as a paintbrush.

The landscape changes all the time. When you ride in a car you do not expect the scenery to remain the same through the entire journey, nor do you think that once you've been past something you'll never see it again.

Like an assemblage being created, you take the parts of your vision that you've received before and add them to what you are newly seeing. They may seem familiar, similar in so many ways, but each day is new and each piece is new.

Allow yourself the grace to be penetrated by the vision before you, and your own vision expands to reveal gifts of vast creativity.

Contraction expansion, two words with opposing meanings. Being, a word of its own meaning.

In art, allow it to be.

When art deems you ready, it allows you to see beyond judging factors, and shows you what it wants to share with you.

The vision goes beyond the limitations of the world, and you become more of who you are being, this is how art of something new is made.

Art helps you leap, putting before you the forward of your desire to see more than you can think possible, but that which you can accept as potentiality.

Every time we move to new piece of work, we must allow ourselves to be open and opened. We let ourselves be penetrated and reach to feel the enjoyment the gift means of itself, and means to us.

Hope your day finds you enjoying all that you see. Take it into your dreams and play with the gift. Don't change its look, see it as it is and feel the pulse of life it gives you.

Art is rich and full of living.
