What does this have to do with communing with animals?
 - it helps me to get more conscious

Learning how to paint has been a lesson in focus, discipline and most importantly, it has taught me how to really look.  I have limited my use of my amazing sense of sight by my belief systems.  The first time I painted a horse's eye, for example, my art teacher laughed and said I needed to look at the shape of the eye I was painting rather than presume it was the shape I had in mind.  I also noted, for the first time in my life that there are dark lines between the light lines in the sky when the sun sets. Two of many great realisations.

Being more aware of what I see provides me with a more open mind.  It is the most liberating thing on earth nowadays for me to notice a block, limit, belief system - or whatever it is that is stopping me from being objective.  I highly recommend learning something new - all the time.  It is fun when you start to drop the blocks.

My latest adventure - learning how to play rock drums.  Watch this space and I will let you know how it goes.

Here are some of my paintings.  Some are still for sale.  If you are keen to purchase, email me.

What is success?

Success is not giving a hoot.  If you can be a 45 year old cat woman playing in front of 3000 people, totally uninhibited, then you are succeeding.  Because if you are able to do that, you are in the present moment, not caring about what anybody else thinks.  Not worried about their judgements or how you think you should be coming across.  (ok, so I was a little worried, so not 100% successful, but I continue to strive to be free of this nonsence) When you have that presence of mind in front of animals, that is when you are succeeding. 

A Lesson in Surrender

  I always found the concept of surrender a cop out.  Something one would do if one was too weak to take on a situation.   So, when I found myself in a situation where I am unable to follow my passion in the most effective manner, I experienced great discomfort.  Speaking up was immediately taken as judgement.  Even though it was never intended as that.  The presumed judgement resulted in defence.  And the drama began, and unfolded.   Chasms and vindication ruled.  Frustration and finger pointing. What has this to do with animals?   For those of us that work with animals, they are like kids.  They sense how we feel.  Our moods affect them.  So, when this type of angst environment is created, the disturbance affects the creatures that we love. The lesson – stop the angst.  It is not worth upsetting the animals.  Nothing is.  So, surrender.  Not sure where this will go.  But I am here righ...

cove slaughter

I am saddened and battling to understand people again.  The cove dolphins are cordoned off, awaiting slaughter.  Some being taken to dolphin facilities world wide.  How do people stand there and do this?  How do they sleep at night with those decisions in their head?  Then again how do we all?  Driving to a bird sanctuary yesterday I saw a cattle truck on its way to the abattoir.  What is the difference?  Then I saw a bearded vulture at the sanctuary.  Only 320 of the left in the world and they are planning wind generators in their area – a certain death certificate.  Here is a prayer – look into the eyes of an animal.  Or a human.  See them for the miracle that they are.  Then make choices that are respectful and loving.  As yourself – What would love do?  I am so grateful that I am surrounded by animals.  And so grateful that there is no effort required for me to care for them.
