Deathless Love
One of my favorite parts of my vacation was diving deep into an “Autobiography of a Yogi” by Paramhansa Yogananda. It’s definitely being added to my top 10 list of best spiritual books out there. It’s so beautifully written; I’m amazed at how he captured the essence and magnificence of the guru (teacher) disciple (student) relationship.
Love Letter To Spring
Dear Spring, I am so delighted at your arrival :)! I’ve spent a lot of time this winter planting and nurturing things inside and outside of me and am so excited to see them take bloom now. Thank you for all the hope, new life and fresh starts you bring as you...Warm Sips
What do you sip on when it gets cold out? It’s that time of year….where warm sips of something nourishing are always near me while I’m working :)….especially when winter storms come through and we’re snowed in :). Don’t you love the...Sivasana: my favorite pose.
Stillness from Deep Within As much as we all love the idea of deep and total peace, I think many of us have a harder time with it than we realize. Sivasana (my now, favorite yoga pose), also known as corpse pose, is known to be the ultimate relaxation/peace pose. When...#100 Day Project: daily art
In October I had a ball doing a 30 day, art every day challenge. I didn’t really have any expectations for the month, I was just interested in sketching more and seeing if I’d be able to stick to the routine. Little did I know that it would awaken my creativity in a whole new way :). Above and below are a few of peeks of some of the art I created over the course of 30 days. I really enjoyed exploring my interpretation of goddesses :)…that’s Saraswati above and Lakshmi below…amongst sketching out recipes, my everyday yogini’s and I did a little ode to quiet places. It didn’t really put a box around the type of art I had to create which was so freeing.
Goodbye 2015: a year in review.
Dear Friends, Happy New Year! Every year I like taking the time to recap the year – to look back and see where we started and where we ended. At a glance it gives you a chance to celebrate the strides, review lessons learned, reflect on turning...YOU’RE INVITED: 2016 Global Collage Party
New Year’s Collage Party’s have been a long time tradition of my sister and I…and now I’d love to open up this tradition and invite you and your friends to join the fun!
Whenever I’ve taken the time to put visuals to my hopes and goals for the future, they seem to stick a little better. Maybe it’s because I not only have a clear image in my mind, but when I start veering off track, my collage provides a visual reminder of my intention were and an ample dose of inspiration to stay on course and keep motivated….especially if my piece is hung in a good spot, like by desk, by my bed or one year I even hung it in my bathroom so that I would see it every morning while I was getting ready.
Commissions+ Art Therapy + December Giveaway Winners
This week I finished up three lovely commission pieces for a dear friend of mine from college….they were so fun to do! She wanted to give something special to her sisters that encompassed their love, friendship and the gratitude she held for each of them. So, after a few phone conversations and a little questionnaire, I created these three pieces to celebrate their sisterly bond!
