The great social experiment: art and love

The GSE for short. I believe that the energy you share with the universe is the energy you get in return. For 2009, I started to think about ways I could manifest beauty in my own life. I thought how great it would be to create little pieces of art to randomly pass out to strangers I find intriguing or beautiful in some way, and document the process ,or, hide pieces of art for random strangers to find. What an excellent way to spread love and beauty and perhaps, meet some interesting new people! So here I am spreading some art, beauty and love and blogging about it. If I gave you a piece of art, or if you found a piece of art, enjoy! Please feel free to leave a comment, suggestion, criticism or supportive or loving words. Cheers to an interesting 2009!

Ironic and Symbolic Resurrection










I woke up this morning (Easter) feeling like I needed a resurrection, a restart, a rebirth. Ironic. I know. I'd been mourning a recent break-up and I decided I was done. Bloom, grow, be.

The themes of most of my paintings have to do with spiritual growth. Grow, bloom and be, are all words I often inlcude in my paintings. I worked on some paintings today with those themes in mind. My soul is blooming. Passing these gems out to the universe helps to heal my spirit and rekindle my light. They're offerings to the universe to help aid my growth.

If you found one of these I really hope you enjoy it. Let me know what you think. I'm also happy to report that my little red "Grow" painting found a new home. Thanks for writing me and letting me know you liked it!
