“Root Focused”

Facebook flashed this to me the other day, as a 6 year memory.

And it inspired this:

Holy Gaia! This was a pivotal piece in my career path as an artist. This is the FIRST piece I ever painted with paint markers, which have been a core, monumental tool/medium for my process of creating ever since.
I think about this piece often. As it holds a special sentiment and significance in my journey as an artist and who I am. I dubbed it “Root Focused” as it provided a grounding and anchoring for my dreams to take further manifest.

It was in the creation of this art piece I realized the potential of being able to share my artwork with the world in a more direct way. It resembled the ability to scale up my work which until this moment had previously been exclusively small scale works on paper, sketchbook and drawing pad sizes, with primarily colored pencils and micron pens.

Schhwwww.

I was opened up to a whole new level of possibility, capability, and inspiration with the creating of this (he)art piece.

It’s wild to fathom and extends beyond fathoming.

This piece was the door to an opening that has been integrated into my life ever since. This piece actually is a door, and was resuscitated from the waste stream. It was the first of a few pieces on reclaimed doors that comprised of a mini-series and my first works scaled up.
This piece was the grounds of exploration in preparation for my first mural. It was my first “study” of paint markers and an awakener to a whole new realm.

I was buzzing with the ease and the uncanny degree to which I was able to adapt my previous background in drawing to a larger scale.

One of the reasons this piece has often comes to mind is because I have no idea if it any longer exists. At the time of creating it, I was traveling through St. Augustine, FL and it’s not easy to carry a door in/strapped to a backpack so I left it behind in safe keeping, amongst others. That safe keeping took a different form eventually and I am still to have yet located the pieces from that time-frame.

“Root Focused” initiated me into a new ability to craft and to focus on my craft. I can re-member the energy flowing through me in the moment of creating this, and it was the sweet taste of inspiration, potential, and passion. It sensitized a dream and it’s feasibility. Such sweet grace. Such sweet vision.
It memorialized this feeling.

It’s All in Allignment

It's All in Allignment

I was having a moment where I was addressing and acknowledging this subtle feeling of things being challenging and reminding myself that it is all in alignment. I was observing that through the process of this piece when my sister called, expressing a similar thing in her own way.

I entered this piece starting with the words and then intending to create a visual that somehow depicted that. (I understand alignment is spelled with one L, I play with words sometimes. 🙂 😉 )

It was cool, it wasn’t until after I got off the phone with her, I realized it was “in allignment” 🙂 that I was working on this piece while talking to her having a dialogue that was relevant to the concept being explored and nurtured in this creation. Naturally, while working on this piece with her on the phone, vibes from our dialogue made it into the piece.

As, in some sense, each piece is a transcription of the moment. Degrees vary, as does life, and that’s the beauty of this existence. One of the many beauties that is.

Finding myself inspired to act on this reminder for myself, it is sweet to be able to open up that reminder and share it with you all.

My art has served as a great healer, a modality to reflect, a modality to see within, and be present with & resolve various things on many different scales. My early work was some true soul work. Soul revival work.

In writing this blog, it being one of my firsts, I want to acknowledge the limitedness of words. They are amazing tools and are unlimited in so many ways, yet life is so vast and multidimensional there are so many ineffable realms and realities that pertain to life in such significant ways, yet prove challenging to transcribe/communicate with words.

I embrace this and acknowledge this within my art, and my deep love for the creative process is greatly inspired by this feat. To create, to facilitate a visual that transcends words, and encrypt a depiction of the ineffable. That is swell. That is a grand, delightful ability I accept with great humility.

How to transform and see beyond the surface of the realities we so readily interact with, and the collective norm, and remain intact with well-being without the creative process is something I did not know at points. Until I found what to me became a niche of coping with my ascension symptoms when I was first highly and intentionally evolving to see and experience new realms of life. That niche was the creative process and gave me a way to communicate with myself, the multiverse, and all the dimensionalities of life I struggled to find an avenue for anywhere else.

Creating provided a ripe and open outlet for this process that I am incredibly grateful for. It in a sense saved me, stabilized me, gave me a means to communicate that which was boiling up inside me with no where for the byproducts of that transmutation to resolve. A perfect, safe, healthy medium to release and reveal, that which overwhelmed. And for the record, we can be overwhelmed with good things 🙂

So in this context, it’s weird to put my voice on paper, or in this case a screen. As drawings have been what I have found to be the most direct ways for me to communicate a lot of what is most true to me. With out the confine of common language. It’s safe in that sense, there is not as much pre-determined relationship with what is being interpreted, opening up a very different platform for communication.

We’ll see how my ability to communicate with words evolves on this site, and my development as an author. I find it can be challenging if used are too many words, and they can fall back on themselves and potentially conflict as ideas and thoughts vary. Yet, I suppose that is part of life. At least right now.

P.S. Many of these concepts, ideas, and thought forms will be expanded upon otherwhere in the site eventually, so follow along if you have any interest. Thanks! Appreciate you!
