Be – 5″ x 5″

Original Collage Painting 

This collage is part of a mini-collection within “Spaciousness”, each with a title that stands alone or together as part of three small collage paintings. “Be”, “Here” and “Now” are 3 of my favorite words, by themselves or together, because they remind me how I want to stand in this world.

About the “Spaciousness” collection

It started as an experiment. Would it be possible to create while completely connected to the present moment, and in the process, embed the Divine into each collage as it was created?

So I closed my eyes, let go of my thoughts, and offered the collage I was about to create to a higher power. When my eyes opened, I kept my mind still as I sifted through the collage papers before me, selecting elements that made my heart tingle as they were touched. If I got “stuck”, I would again quiet my mind, and then continue to touch the collage papers until I felt the quiver in my heart say “try this”.

During the entire process, I was simply following what I was being “told” to do in each moment, trusting my heart and higher power to guide the way.

I had never created like this before, and I knew that this is how all of my art would be created in the future, from a place of spaciousness, a Divine connection to the present moment and all there is.
