Intuitive Shorthand

For the past few years I have been doing what I refer to as "Intuitive shorthand. "   I use it with photographs I take, art pieces I create, and to help me go inside...instead of using my mind. The pre requisites are: A meditative State. A journal A quiet spot where you won't be disturbed Soft music with no words to distract Low lighting I burn some Paulo Santo *holy wood Clear my mind of any thoughts  Close my eyes Get comfortable Begin I then begin listening for words or a phrase to  come through.  I don't hurry the process. When the words don't come any more I end my session. After I write a word or a short phrase, i close my eyes again until the next word emerges, etc. till done. After the session. or maybe a few days later I take the listing of words I have written in the order they were written   and as QUICKLY  as possible ; with no mindful thoughts,  I create an intuitive recall.  The most important aspect is to write as quickly as possible adding connecti

Hats

I am working on some crocheted hats for my daughter and son in laws'  store.  The woven material is sari silk material on the left and a silk texture type yarn on the other.   They are quick and easy....a nice break for a few days before I go back to my clay on canvas pieces that are waiting on my table in my studio.  Speaking of which...stay tuned for the most recent piece...found the perfect size shadow box .... anxious to get things secured together and see if it is "done" or if I still have work to do on it.
