Some mornings I wake up with my central line channelling directly from the source. This was one of those mornings!
I penned this poem in the early hours of this morning. It’s essentially about the relationship between me and my creative self [but not in the egoistic sense] Rather… it is an acknowledgment of the creative source within… and the eternal search for my own quintessential truth. Yes… kinda deep I know. But you know artists… [grin]
THE MUSE
You are my heart
And my heart is yours
You know my love
And my love is true
You are my soul
And we are divine
I am who I am because of you
For you are my soul reflected

Yesterday I completed the third in a series of nudes that represent a distinct shift in my watercolour process. I am very excited about what I have managed to achieve in these three artworks. Above is a sample… [just a peek for now] as I have some plans for these works.
A friend of mine… a gifted musician… has agreed to allow me the use of a beautiful piece of music he conceived just before Christmas to use in a clip of my paintings. The paintings were actually painted while I was listening to the music on you tube! LOL So in many ways the images became the music… and the music became the images. It was a joyful process. And I am so very pleased he has agreed [very generously] to allow me to do this.
But just for now… you will need to watch this space! :-)

Watching ….
Hi Joh!
So great to see you. Yes… watch away. I’m still working on it… but won’t be long now.
I like the poem a lot. Intriguing photo. Putting it into six words: “I wait for what comes next.”
Thanks John… “good things always worth waiting for” (((LOL)))
Okay it’s official… my world is definitely surreal. Not only has there been a cyclone blowing around the last couple of days with my ex husband’s name on it… but I just received an email from a friend in Brisbane who wanted to know if it really was me on the Jetstar ad she just saw on television! (((LOL))) Yep. Apparently it was. Heck. What next? While my world swerves wildly between the good the bad and the “totally out there”… I have no idea when this crazy ride is going to end… or where it’s going to wind up taking me. Man what a trip (((chuckles))) But I guess… at least I know I’m alive and can be thankful for that! [And thank God I am resilient] LOL [hmmm think I need some chocolate!]
Okay… well christmas cake then… oh yummmm… that’s seriously goooood. LOL
It’s early here. Going out now to walk in the rain with some crazy friends. Not even a cyclone is going to get in the way of my walk… [and breakfast too of course!] LOL Have a great day everyone… wherever in the world you find yourself this rainy windy hot sunny freezing cold snowy Sunday morning!
