Off to their new home

These beauties are now in their new home in La Quinta CA! The big piece was a commission for my wonderful client Judy that had to harmonize with the smaller one. The smaller piece was made first and inspired by her great energy and the love for turquoise colors. It was tailored for her, as unique as she is.
I am very grateful and lucky to have clients that appreciate my work, that is the most rewarding in this process. To be able to share my passion, enthusiasm and love for art with the world is just awesome.
These won't be in my October show but I have other artwork waiting to be shared!

Yes, another one!

Compassion

A mantra for compassion.

When we feel overwhelmed by the negative news of every day, catastrophes, wars, political situation, discrimination and so on, we feel disempowered and shut down.

Mantras are very powerful and filled with divine positive vibrations. By repeating them out loud or in silence, they can help us in difficult times by calming our agitated minds and raising our vibration.

Still working on this beauty, layer by layer. The creative process takes time, sometimes it's impulsive and strong, sometimes subtle and slow.
Painting taught me to take my time and be patient. As an impatient being, it took me a while. I consider my impatience my biggest motivator in achieving goals. The dark side of it, we all know it. Burning stages, damaging body (in yoga for example) and more. I also see more and more the importance of accepting our dark side to find balance in ourselves. By neglecting it, it will scream louder to get your attention. Through acceptance we can relax and consider there is nothing to change. It's just a part of ourselves and often by doing so, the dark side softens and lightens form alone.

Teaching yoga

Since last Sunday I am a 200 YTT yoga alliance certified teacher in traditional yoga! YEY!

As a teacher I yet remain a lifelong student. Yoga is so vast and deep and this yoga teacher training experience humbled me because the more I know, the more I see that I know nothing. There is so much more to it. Yoga isn't just a philosophy, it's a lifestyle that you commit to.
Teaching my second official yoga class this Thursday at Ben Hicks Yoga in Lake Havasu, 8am. It will be a Sivananda yoga class, one of my favorite traditional yoga style. Come by and enjoy the fullness of yoga!

Life...

Day trip celebration on Route 66 to Seligman AZ with my husband. Thankful for those unique precious moments.
We even had rain and temperatures around 60 degrees. Living in the desert with daily temperatures above 100 degrees for half a year, rain, green and cooler temperatures are a real treat.
