Practice anything
Consistently
As a way of life
And it will become art.
An art that is tangible…
To sense like an artist
In the throes of creation.
For as you practice
In your passionate perseverance
Your soul is enriched
And your spirit shines
In its own truth.
“Art is for the heart from the heart with all your heart ….

Very interesting perspectives…
I wonder what makes the mind want to take a spill to art.
What evokes the heart to charge the creator with imagination and energy…
To be able to create such artful associations.
Some learnings from a Spill
To turnover a spill to evolve for better
If a child has spilled a cup of milk accidentally….
To keep calm and address the lesson in the spill like carefulness, steadiness, patience, thoroughness, cleanliness and most of all mindfulness.
What’s is spilled, is spilled already…. what matters is what we do about it.

As a child when my daughter dropped a glass of water, spilled milk on the floor accidentally, without getting angry admonishing, I have used it as moments to convey such lessons… so much so that it made her understand the value being in the moment while doing anything.
Great lessons can be taught in such moments and vulnerability can become a strength in time.
Similarly one can intend
To create hope in a spill…
To sense a pattern of possibilities in a spill
To use a spillover to change mindsets
To challenge the statuesque through a spill.
To evoke creativity and art…
To test skillsets learned from a spill
To create art in revisiting patterns & perspective
To spill some more and align the pattern formations.
To move beyond the evident spillover…
To envision hope beyond the accidental spill
To accentuate the spill artfully
To create masterpieces from the potential in a spillover…
To understand there is always a reason why and the learnings to come.
To empathize with the spillings across the learning curve
So the very act of overflow or spill
Or a cup that runneth over
Can be a turning point in itself
With the many lessons to learn.
The choice rests with us.

This post is a spillover effect from an earlier share by my good friend Ali Anani, PhD.
Breathing in the tunes
Singing the songs
Mouthing the lyrics
Playing in the right pace
Keeping time with the music
Sometimes art simply shapes up in the nuances of expression.
Every artistic expression
Speaks of a certain experience
Of a narrative from a perspective
That can both personal or impersonal.
Yet it deeply connects the art & artist.
In those unique circumstances
That may birth the flow & the shaping.
And when the art becomes a spectacle.
The spectator interpretations
Can be equally enigmatic
As much as deeply interconnected.
All in the nuances of the artistic expression.

I came across this arresting piece of artistry
That evokes many emotions…
This is a beautiful gem of a sculpture.
What did you see in this artwork first?
There are two birds depicted by this amazing artist.
Which bird caught your eye first?
For me it was the lustre in wings of the bird on top that caught my eye .
What about you?
Any contemplations on this?
Do share!

This beautiful bloom blossoms ever so gently in a timelapse.
Watch this delicate dance with life!
“Be the brave heart
that learns to dance to life.
Dream on and take the chances.
And let your soul live this dance of life.”

A video clip posted on fb caught my eye today, it was about the beauty of dance movements by male dancers.
The clip shows some amazing male ballet dancers moving majestically.
There is strength and suppleness
Grit and grace in the moves
The moves are not effeminate
As commonly perceived by laymen
That male dancers dancers are boxed into.
In fact there is power of poise
In their agile moves, so difficult to achieve.
Whoever shows gender bias in Dance.
This clip will show the power of Dance
To move beyond bias and prejudice.
It is so much more than the moves
It is a state of mind and heart.
That creates magic in the movements.
