A custom wine table and wine rack was requested.
The curved interior was inspiring for overhead sculpted branches of golden leaves, roots to hold wine bottles and a meandering copper river to welcome guests.

To know Suni is to love Suni...

She is contagious with life energy. 

Her yoga practice has given her wings to fly and an awareness of new found freedom.  It was on our yoga mats that we first met...it is our mutual love for yoga and our yoga community that continues to nourish our friendship.

Her request for a custom piece was inspired from the wall mural that is housed in Spotted Dog Yoga's large Krishna studio. Created with affirmations that speak of her own intentions and symbols that embody her well-being, this 7.5'x4' sculpture was personalized just for her.  

The repurposed wood came from our old cabin dock...filled with the energy and serenity of the many years we enjoyed sitting on these boards to enjoy the beauty of our cabin and lake surroundings. Tea lights provide a warm glow in the evening and invite the ritual practice of lighting these intentions and igniting them from within.

Suni is thrilled...."I am so happy, I am floating on a cloud!!"...she shared with me today.

Feeling so very blessed to continue to create works that invoke healing, spark inspiration and promote well-being...grateful for this amazing creative journey.

The images that I continue to carry with me are the colorful boats surrounded by a backdrop of patterned cottages, seagull covered rooftops and flag draped village quays.

Having walked many miles, enjoyed many Cornish pasties and hard ciders, laughed hard and smelled the breeze coming off of the English Channel...I've been celebrating the feelings of Cornwall in my latest creation.

What do 8 women do to mark the moment at a Bachelorette party?  

They create of course....

What better way to celebrate the bride to be than to combine all of our creative energies to paint a gift canvas.  After a group discussion that included setting our intention for the creative process, throwing out into the ocean breeze any creative hesitations...the afternoon opened into an amazing exploration of the creative spirit.

The bride picked out her palette of colors...the fun began.  Rotating around a prepped canvas, changing the perspective with each stroke....the layers unfolded.

We danced, we pounced, we bounced....we found paintbrushes in our fingertips and the surrounding grass blades on the property.  The creative juices flowed freely.

Next morning...over breakfast, we shared our hearts with a Bead and a Blessing offering.

With a little assembly, and a whole lot of love...our bride to be has a keepsake gift...filled with the energies of her soul sisters and our combined blessings for a lifetime of happiness.

Thank you ladies for trusting the journey....we've got a very happy girl.
Can't wait until the big day....Love you Amanda and Dustin!!!

May your light remind us of our own light and may it have victory over darkness.  May we be delivered from our fears and our generosity be unending. May we know and understand ourselves and thru this liberation, receive prosperity in all areas of our life. 

Enjoy this sweet journey of trust and discovery in the creation of Lakshmi.

This divine hero of blue known for carrying a flute as his talisman whose grace rids us of our impurities and whose song brings pure enjoyment and self existing bliss. Thru breath, Krishna brings sweet music to our ears....a great reminder of the gifts that our own breath brings within our practice. The human heart, made instrument for the God of Love to play upon. Legend says Krishna's melody plays so sweet that peacocks were "blissed out" with joy and offered their feathers of nobility in gratitude. Krishna's peacock adornments represent the all seeing eyes that bring forth third eye knowledge and invite us to know and to show our true colors. 

May you know your absolute truth.

Thank you yoga community for all your words of appreciation and your enthusiasm during this work in progress...a great reminder of the impact that our daily paint strokes can have on one another.
