Thanks... I enjoy finding different art forms... Here's a horse (short one) on art.

This is so great. I love it. That's a lot of caffeine. They might have needed it while doing a job like that! hehe. Thanks for sharing it, Lee.

Artist assistants stand next to 3,604 cups of coffee which have been made into a giant Mona Lisa in Sydney, Australia. The 3,604 cups of coffee were each filled with different amounts of milk to create the different shades!!

Thanks for the lovely compliment, SunshineSkye, and to you both for the warm welcome.

Some months ago, I was led by Spirit to perform a certain Native ceremony for myself. The outcome was unexpected and enlightening. I made Spirit a promise, for It had shown me how essential balancing my "nurturing mother" with my "rainbow woman" was. I have tried to make time for creative pursuits since then, but really, it's only been in the last few months that I've really taken a big dive in. Lol, I'm creatively obsessed!

Please feel free to check out the above link again even if you've already visited it, as I add new work frequently. Lately I've really been experimenting with different techniques in photography and digital art (how can you learn if you don't try after all?) and have added some new writing as well..

Warm Hugs,
Mercale

Welcome to the group, Mercale and Sunshineskye!
So wonderful to see you here. I think being creative is the most important thing we can do. I love how creative you are, Tanya. I love all the things you do.
Skye: can't wait to hear what you are up to! :)
Have fun and feel free to post any works or projects you like right here in Creative YOU.

Wow! You're a really good writer! I like "Patchwork"! :)

It's me :)

Hi all!

I'm Mercale (aka Tanya). I love to write, paint, sketch, photograph, sing and sculpt.

No claims as to my *impressive skill* (grin) but I do enjoy the oppertunity to be creative!

You can check out some photos, a few paintings (simple folk-style with the emphasis more on message) and a little bit of my writing here if you're interested. If not, that's ok too! I look forward to sharing and being inspired.

humbly,
Mercale

Thanks for the suggestions, Mercale.

Off the top of my head...bed or housebound folks, handicapped who can no longer take long walks, those with certain types of behavioral disorders, and of course nature lovers everywhere.

What about places where nature is a theme, such as resturants (many have televisions)? I know there was a cool nature resturant place in SeaWorld or one of those cluster of parks, where there were televisions showing nature shows, I would have found one of these more entertaining to have on the set, as I couldn't really hear what the show announcers were saying anyway.

..just a few ideas, I'm sure there are many more!

Any advice?

Hi,

This group looks like a good place to seek some advice on my new project. I'm a nature videographer and have recently launched a new website,
Peaceful Walks, with the goal of helping people relax and deal with stress in a natural, entertaining way. I hope to accomplish this via short, relaxing videos (about 3-minutes long) of nature scenes I've filmed from locations across the United States.

What I'd like is to get some feedback/advice/suggestions on this concept. Who might find this service of value? Are there certain businesses or organizations that might use this service? I think it's a pretty unique offering on the Web, but I need help in deciding what market to target.

Thanks for your consideration and suggestions.

Thanks. :) We moved recently and I am in a new house. So I still need to get a proper studio setup back up and running. I still need to complete this series of works. Thanks for the encouraging comment.

Re: Neat source of inspiration for artists!

Hello charlesellis!
Thanks for this GREAT video. How much fun! I love your idea. And yes. Getting started is definitely by far the hardest. But this is a great idea.
Thanks again!

Re: New Series of work.

I like how you allow the raw canvas to show behind the pieces, that's so cool!

Neat source of inspiration for artists!

http://charlesellis.gaia.com — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 06:13:06 GMT

One of my weird little projects is to make abstract paintings off of Sega Genesis video game screens. This is how I made "Digital Mermaid", one of my favorite pieces to date. The process is really fun, and I would encourage anybody to try something like this! As we all know, the hardest part of any work of art is GETTING STARTED.

Designing an eco-friendly wooden tree studio.

http://jodi.gaia.com — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 15:15:07 GMT

Hi all!
I am working on ideas for my wooden studio/tree house.
My husband and I are going to be building it by ourselves.
This is such an exciting project for me. I love building things... being and artist... but I also can't wait to have a space of my own to work on my art.
I will keep you all posted on the progress. Please share any ideas or advice you may have! I would love to hear them. :)

That is incredible, actually. To think that so much can happen in so little time. I have also been thinking this past while how everything always seems to be working out. Somehow I end up fumbling my way through and finding the right path. Getting exactly what I need or want or dream. Even when I don't always see it clearly or know what it is going to be.

:) makes me smile. thanks again!

I am so happy to hear of your journaling which sounds so inspirational! Jodi, thank you soo much for bringing me back to this post written 2 years ago! Makes me chuckle because now two years down the line several books are flowing into manifestation and back then they were a seed in the ether which I was wondering about. I'd forgotten that dream while the books were being birthed. I am yet again humbled by the excellence of Guru Life and it's perfection!

love

Oh Hummingbird.
Just reread this great post!
You are amazing. I have been journaling forever. But this past year I have really been doing it almost religiously. Wow! It has helped me focus so much. I have been doing so much more writing and drawing and painting... the list goes on.
Thank you for being an inspiration to me. :)
