Her mind became filled with details of society life and her thoughts strayed to all kinds of desires and dreamed outcomes. She noticed how she had become distracted from pursuing her spiritual life.

Entry #9 Cyclops

Being a cyclops is sad. People don't want to be friends with you because you are so different.

Family members reject you because you are so different.

The Artist Way

Reading through the basic principles and tools, formulating what is expected. So here are the basics.

• Read the Basic Principles everyday being aware of any shifts or changes in consciousness regarding the principles.
• Three pages of long hand journaling everyday for the next three months.
• A date with my artist self once a week. A play fun date.

Sounds like a lot but totally doable and I'm certain that it will all be worth the time to make these wonderful discoveries and recoveries, to explore the mystery not to be confused with mastery.

Starting on Wed. Sept. 3rd, I will be reading and working through the first of twelve exercises. Follow along with me, I would sure love the company.

Week1: Recovering a Sense of Safety
Shadow Artists
Your Enemy Within: Core Negative Beliefs
Your Ally Within: Affirmative Weapons
Creative Affirmations
Tasks

Entry # 6

The paper was soaked with water and some paint was introduced while dripping wet. Then the paper was crumpled into a ball and left to dry. Creating this wonderful texture.

So I had this beautifully textured paper, that I drew on with a water-soluble grafite stick. I then wet the graphite with a brush, creating this warm and protected embrace.

entry #4

A quick and simple little drawing of a glass rocking horse on a glass table. Home after a long and wonderful day in Golden Gate Park. So it was a quick study. It is a favorite piece and I will do it justice. What I did learn from last nights piece, is that I have to spend time on my daily piece so that I'm proud of what I have done and not embarrassed.

We went to the Academy of Science Museum in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. There was a very interesting skull exhibit. I wish I would have taken more photo's but here is one of a Black Rhino.

My SO (significant other) has a skull collection and his brother has an even larger one. Needless to say we will be seeing skulls in the Daily Drawings. 

The other part of the museum which is a permanent part is a three story rain forest with plenty of moths and butterflies birds and frogs and more.

At the bottom of the three stories is an aquarium that can be viewed from above below and side ways. Allowing the viewer to get up close to our CA waters.

So gorgeous 

More pictures to follow somewhere.

As always,

Entry #3

Knot

Last night on the internet I came across recent photo's of my 4 and 5 year old grandchildren. I went through them one by one and came across a couple of video's.

They are getting so big. Again I don't know my own grandchildren. I cried as I went to sleep. It will be a while before I do that again.

And don't forget! I'm going to start the Artist Way on Sept. 03 and would love to have you follow along with me.

I'm at the Basic Principle's - I have to remember to start reading them everyday.

#3 was done in charcoal

As always keeping the brushes wet.
