I forgot I saw these videos, it is before we have come to know one another a little bit more. I love hearing your voice. Blog friends gives us bits and pieces of one another, which can be so powerful, not diluted by voices and looks. Still when another bit comes in I can only smile. Thank you for taking me back to these posts.Tammie Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09018402134070834516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6065566596642714859.post-10917717189857723092010-05-06T21:14:55.660-07:002010-05-06T21:14:55.660-07:00Not Becalmed and the Creature are my favorites...v...Not Becalmed and the Creature are my favorites...very powerful.

(and jude : ) thank you about 'the finder'. she just popped out on the muslin and made me smile right off. xo<br /><br />hee, thank you, robyn... it's making me smile a big smile to read your words. : ) that winged Being surprised me... xo<br /><br />ha! janine! i got on a real black background binge over the holidays - it's NICE. a whole different look...<br /><br />oh jasmine, a tree (or *many* trees) will be calling out to you once you move, of that i have no doubt. i was so happy to get up to the green shrine tree yesterday - it had been calling for weeks... xo<br /><br />m, first of all, i love seeing you here again... and reading what you wrote i'm feeling a little teary. you know, as i was walking away from this tree yesterday i was thinking about how much it's seen. i cannot put into words the awe i feel for trees as witnesses. it's beyond all logical thought. it's Love... i think this is their biggest teaching for me. xo exo (hey! three little birds' just came on my mp3 player! everything is teaching us!)<br /><br />teri, i will look for those posts on 'ornamental'... yeah, black is wondrous... i can't imagine painting without it. and it *was* cold out there yesterday! i didn't lounge around at all after i drew one face. i really wanted to put my gloves back on! xo<br /><br />hee, manon! yeah, the black paint thing is very freeing! and it feels so great to leave the parts i don't like just completely covered. ; ) xo<br /><br />aw, cat... thank you... yeah, the many incarnations... xo<br /><br />boy loani, i don't know if i was saying that or not... i never know, it seems. i just keep going with the paint and there they are. i think that i always feel like they are friends that show up on the page though - so maybe i am showing myself some dark part of myself but it feels friendly because i know it's me. i don't know... what i just want is for it to feel honest and real. xo<br /><br />dear big heart walking... well, the heart must go wherever, and that's the Truth... so here we are, going... xo<br /><br />jude, thank you... : )<br /><br />hey karin, yes, the pencil-in-the-box thing is the other reason i got this case! the color i wanted always seemed to be hiding and would only come out after extensive searching! the third painting was a real surprise... the creature at the top of the page was sort of there in the background paint, but the winged Being only showed up at the very end. how lovely, i thought... xo (if steel wool were as user friendly as muslin i'd sure use it : )lynne hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00682812765012431260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6065566596642714859.post-85835988841332725652010-02-01T21:19:46.258-08:002010-02-01T21:19:46.258-08:00Hey Lynn, I'm enjoying your explorations and e...Hey Lynn, I'm enjoying your explorations and experiments of new painting styles. The third painting you posted here just calls to me; I feel it's visionary mystery - just beautiful.<br />Also enjoyed your wanderings - the shrine inside the hollow is delightful, and your pencil case is very cool! Mine are all piled together causing me to waste a whole lot of time digging for colors, but having them spread out like your is really nice. You might like the results of a little fine steel wool on your branches - it's amazing how smooth the wood will become from a few strokes, but it's not as user friendly/handy as your nice muslin piece :) xox KKarin Bartimolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13490920503677450338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6065566596642714859.post-31266111944971229902010-02-01T18:11:53.708-08:002010-02-01T18:11:53.708-08:00everything here is very exciting!everything here is very exciting!judehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01514075228644109700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6065566596642714859.post-75861800547868956722010-02-01T14:39:10.262-08:002010-02-01T14:39:10.262-08:00You are going new places in the darkness, Lynne.

She is an artist who lives in No. Carolina and is very spiritual also. Go to her blog and look at two specific posts "from sand to snow" and "giving back to the sea". You will love the tree she has there I think. I am loving the black in your work. Black is one of my two most favorite colors and I think it makes everything so rich and mysterious. I admire you sitting there on the ground with snow all around. I know it must be pretty chilly. We have had so much rain here that it has been really hard to get out.
