Creativity flourishes in moving beyond the box stepping out of the emerging collages in the interpretation, time and time again.
Every creative endeavour is rooted in a dance of the energy within and around us … the dynamics of integration embodies the creative output.

Art often shakes up the statuesque
Of possibilities in perceptions.
Chipping away the apparent notions Chisselling to reveal what is yet to be seen
It’s an acknowledgement
Of the myriad expressions in the illusions
Between the you and I
As much as the imagined beyond
Art makes forays into the unfamiliar
Unfolding new vistas from familiar
Opening new doors of understanding.
Envisioning the magic in & around us.
Savvy
In the vividness of imagination
At times there is a turbulence of thoughts.
Of emotions entwined in the sensing.
Moving beyond, patterns forming…
Inspiration & ingenuity births itself
In the very uniqueness of individuality
Yet the source of creativity is infinity
Such is the divine artistry of creation
Savvy
Whatever you resist persists
Steer away from impulsive resistance
Yes while resistance is natural in life
Resistance may create tension
Yet it can be a signal of change
In channelling this very resistance.
In allowing to let go completely
Soon tension eases in the flow
In perseverance & patience.
In response than reaction
Creating positive transmutation.
In thoughts words and deeds
Sifting & sailing through your perspectives
Till harmony becomes you.

Throwback to last week when I recorded a demo and forgot about it
Shown here is one of the riskiest parts of the process — removing myself from the fragile balance without disturbing it.
In order to balance something like this, I usually need to basically wrap my body around it while sitting and building.. using knees to hug / stabilize the lower section(s) like a scaffold. But once I find zero, I need to remove my body without causing the structure to collapse.. on my body.. it’s when I’m most vulnerable.
But as seen here, I keep my gaze firmly on the structure while maneuvering my body away. It’s like a weird hyper focus where I’m spatially entranced on the relative positions of the rocks, and if any data point deviates from the whole, I have maybe a second to react before it becomes dangerous, especially for my left hand here which is planted on the stump I was sitting on, hoisting my body away.. if that top decides to fall on that hand, bones would likely break… not a situation where I can afford to break focus.
Some self removals are easier than others — it really just depends on a firm hold for my right hand behind me, the sensitivity of the structure itself, and what the wind is doing..

This post made me think further on
The Art of Self Removal
In any creation
The creator is inextricably
Interweaved in the tapestry of creation
And yet the Creator detaches the self
To step away from the creation
Distinguishing the completion
Of one phase of the creation
For it to begin it’s own journey of being
Savvy
To a true artist
The medium is immaterial
Everything is association
The elements converge
Every thing connects
Subtlety emerges distinctly
Dancing to the winds of change
Inner motivation leads the way
To find meaningful expressions
In the myriad manifestations
Even in the seemingly banal existence
Creativity sparks from everywhere.
Such is state of fractal flow
Of Art & Artistry.
But then is there a true or fake artist?
For beauty is in the eyes of the beholder
And possibilities of creativity infinite
Art is a moment of reckoning
Of acknowledgement and appreciation
Evoking critical responses & feedbacks
In support or diversity of emotions
Forming new patterns in the experiences
Invoking the spirit of creation
Once more…
Savvy
The way you live this now you have
Is beyond how life treats you
Trust the possibilities in this now
Let go of the unnecessary doubts
Trust in your reason to be
Trust your intentions keep the faith
Life is a reflection of perceptions
And self beliefs manifests hope within.
Keep being the best version of you
Because you truly can!

Sharing one from my series of Circular Artworks painting today and a very powerful poem by Rumi.
I feel somehow it connects with this poem…
“There is a community of the spirit.
Join it, and feel the delight
of walking in the noisy street
and being the noise.
Drink all your passion and be a disgrace.
Close both eyes to see with the other eye.
Open your hands if you want to be held.
Consider what you have been doing.
Why do you stay
with such a mean-spirited and dangerous partner?
For the security of having food. Admit it.
Here is a better arrangement.
Give up this life, and get a hundred new lives.
Sit down in this circle.
Quit acting like a wolf,
and feel the shepherd’s love filling you.
At night, your beloved wanders.
Do not take painkillers.
Tonight, no consolations.
And do not eat.
Close your mouth against food.
Taste the lover’s mouth in yours.
You moan, But she left me. He left me.
Twenty more will come.
Be empty of worrying.
Think of who created thought.
Why do you stay in prison
when the door is so wide open?
Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking.
Live in silence.
Flow down and down
in always widening rings of being.”
– Rumi
I dream in vividness of vibrance
Of colours in all shades and hues
All things bright and beautiful
Of beauty & lightness of being
With the joyful spring in my step
And a grateful heart, I choose to paint
My thoughts today…
Sending Hope & healing
And Good energies to one and all!

Life is a mystical journey
Every now is as fresh as never before
And yet deeply rooted in yesterday
In fact every now is embedded
With the bygone and the future.
What I learn in this now
Is interweaved in eternity time.
In these waves of understanding
Is lifes evolving ways for the being
In the letting go of unnecessary
Is the space and freedom to be
All that one can be.
Every lesson that comes by
Makes an imprint that matters
Somewhere somehow.
Savvy
When what you say
And what you do
Are congruent
The effect of your words & deeds
Radiates all around you in resonance.
It’s no wonder then that
In a world that seems so dissonant
Words and deeds need to synch.
In harmony of such synchrony
Faith and trust meet belief
And that’s what makes all the difference.
Savvy
Life experiences…
Life plays on, making us experience one moment after another. Every day our experiences in living life, can become our guide and compass.
Every failure can be a lesson to learn from and tread wisely with renewed perspectives. Every success can be an open door to more opportunities.
Life moves on
Look forward
Pause to rest, recover
And replenish the self
But be in tandem with time
Dont get stuck in a time warp
Adapt with the changes
Move with grace along the way
Who knows, what’s awaiting
To greet you this next moment
Think well and live lovingly!

Some positive takes in an accidental spill…
To keep calm and address the lesson in the spill.
To turnover a spill to evolve for better
To sense a pattern of possibilities in a spill.
To challenge the statuesque through a spill.
To test skillsets learned from a spill
To move beyond in a dare with a spill
To spill some more and align the pattern formations
To envision hope beyond the accidental spill.
To create artworks from the potential in a spillover
To empathize with the spiller across the learning curve…
Spills become art and art spills over.
Savvy
There is always a path meant for u
Explore the myriad colors of life
In all shades and hue…
What you choose to see
Is how it appears to be
Acknowledge the gifts of life
As they come to you in time.
For Colors make life come alive.
