A Rose

A Rose,
colored pencil by Jean Hart
Every flower you see, try to remember,
that before it bloomed,
it had to push it's way through,
a whole lot of dirt and darkness.

create, you can, you do

CREATE
 CREATE something from nothing, something wonderful, beautiful, something with your hands.
Create a garden big or small, something the butterflies will want to come and visit you in.
Create a song while you are cleaning, or bake a new dish.
So many times I hear people tell me, "I'm not creative", I can't draw or cook, or paint."
I say, you are creative in everything you do, everyday in your live.
I love wearing scarfs, but for the life of me, I tell my daughter every time I wear one, "I can't tie it right!!!" Thankfully, she shows me again, and again, and again. I'm getting better. She creates the folds so gracefully.
You can do it, you all ready do.
CREATE.

Technical Tuesday still life

 
TECHNICAL TUESDAY
 
 
well technically this will not be a "Technical " instruction day.
Mothers Day is coming up and so I have started to paint flowers.
I went to my local craft store and found drawing paper in 5 x 7 pads. I thought wow, this is great, they were already cut for me, in canvas for acrylic, pastel and colored pencil.
I brought out all my colored pencils and started to put together a little still life of flowers.
Today you will be doing the same.
Really think about what kind of flowers YOU LIKE. I find it easier if you like what you are going to draw.
I start with the size and shape of the vase.
pencil in the flower placement.
Pick out a color scheme that is complementary.
I usually work from top to bottom, and with pencil front to back.
Meaning that my background is usually the last thing I draw.
Have fun with this, it's not meant to be hard.
For me this whole painting was imaginary, but if you need to look at something by all means bring out your flower photos.
Have Fun,
Be Inspired,
~Jean

Earth Week, Day 23 useing the physiology of your body

 
 
EARTH WEEK
DAY 23
 
 
Earth week has been about being more connected to your body....and this week end my body has let me know its, hurting, tired and sick. I've have spent the last two days in bed with the flu. Or at least that is what I thought it was. Could it be that doing this Soul Coaching is truly affecting me. I do the activities, write in my journal and my joy book. Attending to my health is a daily thing.
So this week end my body wanted to detoxify. So I let it.
I'm reading this very interesting book called, "Calling  Invisible Women". By Jeanne Ray
It has brought up a lot of interesting points.
What super power would you want if you can have one?
Being Invisible!!
Now, really, stop and think this one through. Not all people can be invisible. It just would not work.
Would you really want to listen to someones conversation????
Can you think of ways to help yourself, and help humanity?
What would you be doing if no one was watching you?
Interesting....live like no one can see you.
How many women or people already feel invisible and are not?
Okay, so today in Earth week,
Today;
carry yourself as if an incredible life force and confidence was flowing out of every pore of you body.
Ask yourself, What does my body say about me?
I know that I must move everyday. Not just the little walks around the house cleaning, but really moving. It is the only way I'm going to get healthy again. And when I don't move. I get so stiff and everything hurts.
I'm not sure how this happens but if you change your body, by moving, eating better, detoxing, you will change your life.
So, if you can remember sometime today so lift your head up, bring your shoulders back your life message will be better too.
If you wanted to continue Level 3: Rejuvenation Time. That is simply to remember that all of these changes takes energy. Even the smallest change in routine will spend energy.
Don't get so caught up with making changes and busying yourself that you do not take some time to reflect and relax.  Your body needs this too.
No picture of me on this day.....detoxing, and being sick is not the way I want to be seen.
Soul Coaching, by Denise Linn
great book, I invite you to join me.

Where do the invaluable mental powers of creativity and imagination come from?

How is the imagination involved in experiences of art?
"The world is but a canvas to the imagination."
Henry David Thoreau
Creativity, where does it come from? Creativity is used to come up with new ideas, making it possible for us to connect dots and conception. Does it come from a mystical energy, metaphoric or intellect? Creativity and imagination both are of the same mind. Left brain, right brain, for me working together creates a new body of work. Often just a spark of an idea can take off by expanding through the thought process. I like to ask the questions, "What if...?'  What if I use a different color, size, shape. All of that goes into building  one idea that can change the whole concept of a painting.
Now, once the painting is completed, I find that the "Title" is where the explanation of the painting comes in. I do not like to explain more then the title to people. By saying anything more limits the experience that people are having with the painting.
It's important for people to have their own dialog with the painting.
Today's Challenge is from
"The Artist's Muse"
"Place an assortment of found objects on the surface of your paper. Use, rice, metal rings, keys, spaghetti, and interesting shapes. Spray around these objects with gesso watered down to the consistency of skim milk. Let dry. Use this as the surface for your painting."
 
Now let your mind wonder and stretch to build up a interesting painting of your own creation using your imagination.
Have fun with this.
Be Inspired,
~Jean

A little Coy Fish, Not just a pond fish.

 
The Amazeing Coy Fish
A Little Coy Fish, pen and pencil, by Jean Hart
 
A little Coy Fish, Not just a pond fish.
The word 'coy' in coy fish is derived from koi, the Japanese name for carp. They originated in Eastern Asia, Aral Sea, Black Sea and Caspian Sea. These are widely cultivated fish in China and Japan. The breeding of these fish first became popular in Japan in the 19th century when farmers accidentally discovered these brightly colored creatures and started to raise them. Gradually it became popular throughout Japan but the rest of the world still was not aware of this kind of fish. When the use of plastic bags became popular, the shipping of coy became faster and safer. Thus their shipping began to other countries, throughout the world. They are now found in most of the pet stores. There are both, the colorful varieties as well as the dull gray variety of coy fish.
