Creative Self-Expression & the Process of Making Art

"Art" unfurls in many directions. It can be forced or result from a breezy flow of whimsy. Spiraling from inspiration of one sort or another, a work of art begins to take form, though can remain formless for years of gestation. The endeavor of making art is a Journey or adventure unto itself. The Journey is tantamount to the destination, essential, one might think. But this is all gauged by subjective criteria: economic, social status, personal gratification or fulfillment, et al.


When making art, I am foremost on a journey. But the Journeyis never over til I feel I am indeed at my destination. Whether a song, a screenplay, a mobile app, fashion design, culinary or fragrance recipe, whatever it is it, there is a gestalt which comprises the beginning, the climax, and the completion of the Journey.

New Moon, New Month, New Year, New Decade

There are infinite possibilities on this adventure of Life. I secured the CosmicAngel.tv domain & changed this blog to CosmicAngelTV, too! Cosmic Angel means channeling divine joy through my creative projects in music & film. Some projects are about love, others are about consciousness, spirituality, nature, heart-connection, living more fully, finding the portal of now, and other more esoteric concepts. For me, the esoteric is a bridge between now & forever! This means that no matter how much the mundane responsibilities of your Life may be getting you down, there are endless ways to lift up & out of that downward spiral. Many people I've met or known over the years have confided their challenges, & believe me, I've had my fair share, but like a yoga practice, emotional yoga, I've studied Law of Attraction & am on a path of ascension. These 'ascension pathways', for truly there are many, can lift you up to your highest good. If you want more info, just let me know.

A New Year...A New Beginning

Jumping for Joy that a New Year has begun! Let's all create a little more Heaven in 2011!! This year, with new mobile app projects flourishing, I'll be focusing more on songwriting, screenwriting, voice overs, & modeling. If you are needing someone with these skills, let me know. Meanwhile, I'll be creating up a new Universe of Goddess Bliss!

Long Time Coming

How strange the passage of time. How demanding Life can be. My artistic soul cannot be ignored, though the journey to fruition seems arduous. The Bliss of the Eternal Soul peeks up when I'm most challenged. I'm grateful for this. It keeps me going. With the loss of loved ones, the changes which seem incessant, there is much to integrate. But the Vision which continues effortlessly is my path home. Into the distance, I can see forever. Inside my soul, there's a lovely landscape which is perennial. The options seem infinite. And when the dust settles, I find that I'm who I've always been...I've just released the shadows of illusion.

short leash

greetings and salutations, as they say...i'm talking to so many people i do not know, and yet, i'm really just talking to my self, to spirit, to the realm of the guides and anges who seem to guide my everyday world...

i seem to be on a short leash...

after a wild northern california tour, i am back in the saddle in san diego...bringing together so many facets of my being for some altruistic cause.

the coyotes make such eerie noises here in the coastal desert...i haven't seen the ocean here for the few weeks i've been here... the haze lingers.

but i'm pulling so many things together it is engaging to be so determined to make this mosaic come to life. all the images, lyrics, prose, events, choreography, designs, prayers, rituals, and people...they all have their place.

And while i'm being creative...so many suffer...so i pray...to be of assistance, whether by inspiration, information, donations, and all the rest...

namaste, world, i'm feelin' ya!

desert evening near the southern coast of california

oooooooo, child, things are going to get easier....oooooooo child, things will be brighter...someday, someday...what a wild summer...working day and night...non-stop...but its getting alright...things falling together...again...at last...again...[breathing...sigh]

pure emotion seems boring unless we take it deep enough to really mean something...

lotus goddess heart

THE LOTUS BLOSSOM

No: it is not yours to open buds into blossoms. Shake the bud, strike it; it is beyond your power to make it blossom. Your touch soils it, you tear its petals to pieces and strew them in the dust. But no colours appear, and no perfume. Ah! it is not for you to open the bud into a blossom.

He who can open the bud does it so simply. He gives it a glance, and the life-sap stirs through its veins. At his breath the flower spreads its wings and flutters in the wind. Colours flush out like heart-longings, the perfume betrays a sweet secret. He who can open the bud does it so simply.
On the day when the lotus bloomed, alas, my mind was straying, and I knew it not. My basket was empty and the flower remained unheeded.

Only now and again, a sadness fell upon me, and I started up from my dream and felt a sweet trace of a strange fragrance in the south wind. That vague sweetness made my heart ache with longing and it seemed to me that is was the eager breath of the summer seeking for its completion.

I knew not then that it was so near, that it was mine, and that this perfect sweetness had blossomed in the depth of my own heart.

CHANDOGYA UPANISHAD EXCERPT

In the center of the castle of Brahman, our own body, There is a small shrine in the form of a lotus flower and within can be found a small space.
We should find who dwells there and we should want to know her. And if anyone asks, "Who is she who lives in a small shrine in the form of a lotus flower in the center of the castle of Brahman?"

We can answer: "The little space within the heart is as great as the universe. The heaven and the earth are there; the sun, the moon, the stars; fire and lightening and winds ... For the whole universe is in Her and She dwells within our hearts."

*Mercury is retrograde in Aries: a time of introspection of self.

New moon in Aries brings re-birth of self-awareness.
