Awaiting...awakening!!!

For years
I remained
Hidden from view
Afraid to show myself
or my true colors...
.....I begin to unfold my wings,
finding the courage
discovering my strength.
Sparkling
Radiant
I take flight.
 
In time, a person emerges from the dark cocooned phase... incorporates the change and metamorphoses into a different person. 
The basic message of the Butterfly for Transformation is that out of loss, change, death and destruction can come new life...new possibilities..new hope!!! 

Reflecting ....GRACE!!!


Cerulean skies…. Its ever changing hue,
Crystal clear waters…Lotus leaf and dew.
                         Reflections of Beauty…                          
Is the mystery of the Lake,
Ripples of Peace, tickles
Making the image …to shake!!
A Swan draped into solitude,
White feathers of gratitude…
Gliding Graceful reflections …sing….
“Beauty dwells in everything”

Once again I made my favorite lotus pond but this time I added a form which depicts beauty and grace...The swan...This bird mesmerizes me with its style...softly floating around in the pond...his presence  gives calm and peaceful feeling ....can watch them for hours together.

Rainbow Dreams....



The rainbow dreams…was created to uplift my spirits…I wanted to do something different… from the regular forms which I use…
  
He, the mystical creature,
He, who vanished from the land.
Its mystery, is its magic
Like a rainbow…
Something ..which no one can hold,
A sweet song,
The legend that longs
To be told…

I used the unicorns eye…which  depicts…magic…mystery…innocence…and dreams!!
I used rainbow colours..to show the divinity of dreams…
I remember this small section from Sarojini Naidu’s poem…
 

Once in the dream of a night I stood
Lone in the light of a magical wood,
Soul-deep in visions that poppy-like sprang;
And spirits of Truth were the birds that sang,
And spirits of Love were the stars that glowed,
And spirits of Peace were the streams that flowed
In that magical wood in the land of sleep.


"NOW" The tresured GEM...


With my Aqua pure “Soul”…
I touch the origin..of  “Beginnings”  
The magic …of the “golden moments”
Casts its spell on the “Time”   
I hold..Like a Precious “Gem”
The memories of ME....”As a child”,
I keep treasured …    
in the deepest “Ocean of my Heart”…
The Sparkle of Ideas….
They have…the brightest “Shine”!!!!
 "NOW" is a state  where the mind emerges out of the ordinary...to feel the entity of the ..."NEW  "the presence of the new moment..is the emotion which inspires "Fantasy"..
"Now" which means ... experiencing life as it is in the very second..we live it....is the greatest gift of all.   It is mingling of the present moment...with things learned...that make the adventure of knowledge...such an amazing treasure.. of all.!!!
As I paint...I learn from every brush stroke on the canvas...I become transfixed on my goal.
I smell the fragrance of every emotion ...accept the whispers from every idea... and thought behind my forms...and keep that treasure within me...always.
I learn from the legends of mermaid ...and accept that everything I need to fly..or swim...is here...inside me....RIGHT HERE...RIGHT NOW!!!

The Aqua Pure Inspiration.....

 Its an abstract expression of my feeling about Affection.
It is that warm glow of peace you feel when smelling the air after the rains!!
It isn't mere Fantasy..or surreal expression..on canvas that I recreate .... 
It is the tenderness of seeing a mother with a new born infant and the wonderment of the life ahead of its fresh beginning.
It is seeing the vastness of a mountain range and the curiosity that builds as you wonder what lies within its boundaries.
It is every magical thing you dream of and hope to know intimately.  
 This expression is something which is imported from another time in space that captures me.... 
  I pause from the dance, the fantasy art woman inside of me... stands still... to focus my eyes.... and I see life.
  I breathe in the art of the exotic women I paint.  My journey begins.!!!!.....

Fairy's Blossoms.....

My dream is like a Fairy Tree..
Sowed with love in the heart of me.
One  whose light...never dims...
And branches never trim
It stands firmly on my Spirit's soil...
Amidst tremors or vicious toil
Like a spring that's flowing and pure...
Nourishing and bringing cure..
To thoughts of dread and fear
And hopes afloat in hidden tears!

My dream is like a fairy tree...
Sowed with love in the Heart of me...
Bearing sweet blossoms, yielding much
All for those....My Life Has Touched!!!

Sometimes when I paint I stand back and realize new things... about myself .... precious images of self discovery.  My paintings and  Passages are about that pathway.!!!
  I have learned that you can heal emotional difficulties with your imagination. .... Imagination is oh such a gift and unspoken treasure.
  If I become a fairy or my friends are mermaids, it is never more real then when discovered within my beloved palette, as the colors move past my brush and onto the canvas. 
I discover that within my heart and mind imagination offers me a future I had not realized before.

Passion for Dance....


A dark stage...
her
beating
heart...
my mind races,
the music starts...

the lights shine..
into her  eyes,
she cannot cheat,
she can't tell lies...

her  body moves ...
to every beat.
the music runs through her...
from head to  feet...

she leaps through the air..
she twirls across the floor.
dance comes from her heart,
her inner core!!!!

My love for dance...expressed ...Acrylics on canvas.
