Poppy Envy
Dear Soul-Sibling,
A few years back I thought it would be magical to catch raindrops and use them with my watercolours.
Little did I know my friend would envy my poppy-painting-prototype and ask about it regularly.
She's not the only one to snatch a painting entirely paired with Southern California rainwater.
You'll get first access to my rainwater paintings when they debut in my spring gallery show.
I'm in love with them and hope you are too!
With all the rain California received this Winter, we're experiencing a prolific super bloom. I have never seen so much growth, plant life and color!
Maria Papova paints with words:
"The life of a garden (wise circle) is a vivid reminder that anything of beauty and radiance takes time, takes care, takes devotion to seed and sprout and bloom. Gardens have long been living cathedrals for the creative spirit."
It takes extra effort, care and devotion to heal these days, since Pandemi disrupted our world and its systems.
My inner garden has become a true sanctuary, and my daily practices connect me to its rhythm and creative spirit.
"And, suddenly, the flower emerges not as this pretty object to be admired, but as this ravishing system of aliveness — a kind of silent symphony of interconnected resilience" (Maria Papova).
May you cultivate hope in a spring of your aliveness and resilience.
Take your time, and be gentle, gentle.
All my love to your flowering!
Yours Bluely,
Alexander
PS
My spring wise circle just opened for enrollment. Perhaps you're looking for a sacred space to take the time, care, and devotion, to seed and sprout and bloom together.
