yoga stencils

I finally made a few yoga stencils from my photographs of my lovely yoga teacher. The facing page is a remnant from a wallpaper sample my mom and I played with when making a photo collage earlier this week. I have also started another  Zentangle Inspired Art piece inspired by the lovely Helen. Included here is a portion of my sketch for that piece.

fall colors and fun
Fall in Wisconsin makes taking photographs so fun and easy. I love walking through the crisp air and listening to the leaves crunch under my feet. Now that I have an iPhone I always have a camera with me, too! These morning fog on the river photos were taken with my iPhone.

at play practice
I have returned to my Dharma teachings class on Tuesdays. It is so healing for me. The Venerable Chodun taught us about the 8 breaths mediation and I have been practicing them every day. I have been working on letting some difficult feelings go because they really have a negative impact on my health and well-being. This 8 breath practice has been so helpful. On the right hand is my husband walking right through all those balloons I am letting go. He has been my hero this week. For this, and for so many other things, I am grateful.

Portrait of Care

Portrait of Care

This is the second self-portrait for the photo-collage that I am gradually creating. Here I am taking care of myself and doing some yoga. In the background one of my cats is grooming the other. I was just playing with the timer on my camera and this picture came together so beautifully. I am amazed with what happens when I am open to my creativity. Also, it is strange that my feet look like that. I have never seen them from this perspective before.

Compost and roses

Compost and roses

SANYO DIGITAL CAMERA

Today was such a great art day. I had the lovely roses from my friend from the Dharma lesson on Tuesday and lots of time and materials. I so enjoy having the time to play with different media to see which one works best for my gratitude metaphor for any given day. Today I had such an abundance of materials that represent so many things I am grateful for in my life. I particularly enjoy the juxtaposition of the newsletter from my CSA vegetable share, called the Com Post, and the laser printed copy of the roses. In all of our lives the compost makes the flowers bloom. Sometimes I really have to look to see the flower through the decomposing pile of corn silk, eggshells, and coffee grounds. Yesterday I could only see anxiety for much of the day. Today was full of literal and metaphorical flowers.
