into the garden - peace of mind
This is the fourth in a series of paintings that illuminate the transformative beauty of the natural world. To visually express how total immersion into wild spaces can create a profound sense of peace; restore wonder; and generate calm in an increasingly chaotic world.

GUARDIAN MONSTER ALPHABET POSTER
What the heck is a Guardian Monster?
I am so glad you asked. Perhaps you've heard of guardian angels -- those lovely, winged beings who guide and protect you? Well, when the job requires a specialized "monster point of view", these eager fellows step up! They may not be as attractive as their more famous counterparts, but they are very loyal and work hard on your behalf. Most of the time. They do have a wee tendency to get their feelings hurt if they are not feeling appreciated. And yes, they have been known to play a practical joke now and again, just to amuse themselves, BUT, for the most part, they are quite reliable and will be there when you need them.

A word of caution: I have not yet met any guardian monster whom one might call pretty. They are not. In fact some can be downright ugly. Depending on their underlying natures and current mood, they might also appear grouchy, whiney, bad-tempered or exhibit any number of not-so-nice personalities. That is not their fault -- they were born that way. So, if you are looking for pretty, fairy-like, always-smiling, ever-friendly types of beings, this is most definitely not the poster for you. These fellows, despite their diminutive stature, mean business. They were built to handle stress, anger, fear, all kinds of unpleasant feelings, and they look like it!

Set against a golden graduated background, a series of stacked blocks, with a strange assortment of monsters standing or sitting on them. Some are sleeping, some are glaring, most are smiling (in a monster kind of way). Each is holding his/her favorite letter of the alphabet. Also available in a cool palette.

Pine trees line the distant shore of a lake, backlit against a stormy blue-gray sky. In the foreground, on a snowy bank, a solitary stone rests. Upon its face, two closed eyes and a linear pattern of foliage. Atop its gray head, a bit of snow and white, ghost-like blooming flowers from memories past.

Sleepy Monster in a Teacup
Humans aren't the only ones who enjoy a spot of tea now and again. Little monsters have been know to slip quietly into kitchens when no one is around and sneak a sip of two of freshly brewed sweetness. Alas, some of these tiny creatures may become so enamored with the tea, that they sip themselves silly and fall into a state of euphoria, causing all manner of behavior.

INNER MONSTERS
Inner Monsters don't necessarily look like "real" monsters. They are part of that constant chatter going on in the background of our own minds, shaping our view of the world. They can appear in a variety of forms, from human, animal, monster-like, even as plants! Most of us... ahem... keep our inner beasties tucked "safely" in the closet, hoping they won't decide to reveal themselves at inopportune times, causing all manner of embarrassing moments, like sudden extreme shyness, unexplained crying jags, overwhelming crankiness, or laughing out loud for no apparent reason, among others. Sound familiar?
The solution is (drum roll please...) to MEET your inner monsters, SEEK to understand them, EMBRACE them as yours, and then LEARN about yourself through them. Bring them out of your personal inner-verse and set them free!

HAPPY CATURDAY!

The Peaceful Garden
A cat meditates on the nature of life. A curious owl wishes that he would talk and explain its enigmatic smile.

The Peaceful Garden With eyes closed in peaceful meditation, a white cat considers the nature of life. Surrounded by a flowering tree and small hillocks of varying shades of deep umber, bright orange flowers spark in the quiet space like fire. A curious owl watches nearby and wishes that he would ask his companion about its enigmatic smile. NOTE: This description created especially for my lovely blind friend, Georgiana. :-)

GO DEEP TO FIND YOUR BLISS

Life can often feel chaotic. Unbalanced. Stressful.
Try and see that it is just on the surface.
Stop frantically treading water just to stay
afloat amidst the craziness.
Instead, choose to go deep.
Deep down, where the restless tides abate.
Deep within, where inner calm resides.
Where bliss can be found.

Frantically treading water at the surface, an orange sullen creature with yellow horns peeks above. At the very bottom of the picture, deep within the water and tied with a string, a pinkish balloon gently floats. Inside it is a red heart.

The Mysterious Monster March: ACROSS THE WATER
a picture book that I am currently working on. :-)

"Dawn breaks and excitement grows.
Everyone is eager to continue on their adventure.
A tasty breakfast of sweet, sticky Hickleberries
makes them all feel very brave.

Later that day, they arrive at the edge of a vast lake.
The joyful monsters jump in with wild howls of glee!
Meenu cautiously steps onto a leaf to float across.
He has never been in water before."

On a tiny orange leaf, sits a small monster as he floats across large, dark lake. A strange swimming creature approaches from behind, causing him to become slightly alarmed. Below the waterline, multiple fish and monsters move at different speeds through the murky depths.

Midnight Monsters: A Startled Moontinkifer
Do not be afraid. Like many night creatures, they just wish to be left alone. These secretive beings often hide in the shadows, except when the moon is full and bright. The midnight moon is their time of wonder and if you happen to be in the right place at the right time, you just may witness some magical happenings. This particular midnight monster is called Moontinkifer and can be found high up in the Balkan mountain range on the border between Bulgaria and eastern Serbia . It was not easy getting to this destination, but I have found it worth the effort, expense and skinned knees. Legend says that if one is lucky enough to spot them during the day, they appear as drab, colorless creatures, almost invisible against the mountain landscape of rocks and boulders. They shine (literally) at night when they come out of their hiding places to dance. Moonlight causes a shimmering transformation from dull gray to a luminous rainbow colored glow! It is believed that the glimmer of incandescent color and magical movements is their way of attracting a mate. Otherwise, they appear to be quite shy, non-aggressive individuals, who unfortunately, startle easily.

GORGEOUS MONSTERS & THEIR PETS
Welcome to my new interview series. I am the official human spokesperson for the Guardian Monster Guild, editor of the "Monster Times & Review" and author of the glamorous tell-all book, "What Monsters Want". These are hard-won credentials that I have worked tirelessly to obtain. As an ordinary human being, entering the realm of Monsterdom requires a rigorous determination, and an ego that can survive all manner of taunts, threats and indignation. I have endured countless nips, pokes and licks from numerous monsters whose intent, it seems, was to provoke me into giving up. I have proved them wrong! NOTE: This latest set of interviews on monster pets is for human eyes only and includes interviews with a select group from the Gorgeous Monsters Society. (This is the name they give themselves.) Here we discuss their feelings of unabashed adoration for their beloved pets as well as their care and feeding.

Meet Mr. Vishnyt, a Spikey Bobster & his (terrified) Speckled Ignatium, Krinkle.

Comfortably curled on an antique chair, a strange spiked, blueish creature lounges. Gazing lazily at a its pet, a smaller green creature with feathered pink ruff and tail, it teases with a string attached to a stuffed toy, which is lodged in its pets mouth. The expression on the pet is both pleading and slightly terrified. We can only guess at their past relationship. NOTE: This description created especially for my lovely blind friend, Georgiana. :-)

Almost hidden within a pile of maple leaves and tucked into the roots of a tree, stands a solitary, spiky haired creature of unknown origin. Arms outstretched, with a slight scowl on its face, it appears to be thinking of something important - perhaps what it would like to eat for lunch. Far back, lurking behind a tree, a young girl is watching. Drawn in black, white and gray graphite/pencil. NOTE: This description is created especially for my lovely blind friend, Georgiana. :-)
