Day 14 of 50: The Art of Being Present

Today I went to a Breema bodywork workshop in Oakland. The Breema Nine Principles of Harmony are a constant companion in my massage practice, my music improvisation, and my art. So happy to get a dose of the Breema energy and presence.

I was also very happy to come home and see that my new art supply storage cart (from IKEA) had been assembled for me! ♥

My new art supply cart…yay!

Moi?

As far as visual art, I just did some scribbling.

Wrote this down in response to the realization that what I love about art is you ask by making. There is no other answer than what happens when you do it.

The key take-home message from today’s Breema workshop

Answering the question, “What happens when I wet a block of watercolor paper, then go over it with Derwent Inktense blocks?”

Tomorrow, follow-up on the things that came in while I was on retreat…and back to art-making!

P.S. Had to share this photo from yesterday:

Great shot by my friend Bissy Ree who elbowed her way in front to capture the violin moment during “One Love” at ULUV Music Day
