catmaSutra cat art - Music that we are

 The Music That We Are

Music That We Are (2012) 24 x 48 inches
Acrylic on Canvas

Climb higher to catch a glimpse

of that which the birds are always aware of, 

the first batch of snow flakes released 

like a symphony of music notes.

It's an open secret of the universe,

that there is a rhythm that

everything dances to.

It is the music that we are

Waiting for sunrise...24 x 48"

Life is strange. By strange, I mean you can never pinpoint exactly what life is all about. It contains everything while on its own, it's a huge beautiful white canvas, waiting to be painted on. It manifests our views, and hence has the ability to create life as we see it. 

The world is huge. You can see so many different kinds of life as they are lived, each day different and yet the same. 

Each day when the sun rises, everything brings with it its own life. Beauty is inherent in so many things; choose to seek it, and it appears in a myriad of forms. Wait for the sun to rise; see how the sky breaks, listen to the chorus of a brand new day... 

Walk softly, live gently. 

Be fearless. This has always been 

your universe.

Before the Dance in The Rain

catmaSutra Cat Art 8

Before the Dance In The Rain

The rain has an uncanny ability to change a landscape -

it may be a storm but it's a redemption of sorts;

it's a celebration of an internal change, a quiet shift

that refreshes and softens and as the rain 

dwindle to the soft chirping of birds,

it's like everything is awakened all at the same time -

a moment made anew in a myriad of forms...

I can't resist being part of it- 

the dance of the rain -

 to feel the trickles of raindrops on bare skin,

and the dance of rain patterns through the dark corners

of our hearts, making everything shining again.

When you catch a whiff of the rain,

get ready for the rain dance....

If for one moment, you find yourself playing and dancing in the rain,
smiling like a little child, and letting it happen,

then the world right there and then would be a 

beautiful place...

it’s about learning how to dance in the rain.” -Vivian Greene

Ride With Me!

 Ride with Me, 36 x 24"

"Ride with Me" takes us away to a place where small things matter more than big ones - like getting ready for a dance in the rain, spending time waiting for the sun to rise, or hours watching birds and fishes glide through their universes. The catmaSutra cats take us through a journey based on innocence, where imagination marries delight, freedom exudes playfulness, such that we can become a child again. We become the music that we are - a blissful symphonic harmony - when we stop to reacquaint ourselves with these moments. Immerse and indulge then in the 8th collection of catmaSutra paintings!

 In the studio...

There's something about a motorcycle that I couldn't resist. Not sure what it is - the open road, the  nearness of the elements, the individuality of the ride, or an indescribable sense of  freedom; perhaps it is the fine line that makes us rebels - The rejection of that which is widely prescribed to the freedom of listening to one's own heart...That heart is a vulnerable one and it will break many times but I suspect it wouldn't have it any other way...

'Rebels'

catmaSutra cat and James Dean,

if only for the freedom of the road...

What makes us us,

and what makes this life so special?

“Remember:
Life is short, break the rules
(they were made to be broken)
Forgive quickly, kiss slowly
Love truly, laugh uncontrollably
And never regret anything that makes you smile.
The clouds are lined with silver and the glass is half full
(though the answers won't be found at the bottom)
Don't sweat the small stuff,
You are who you are meant to be,
Dance as if no one's watching,
Love as if it's all you know,
Dream as if you'll live forever,
Live as if you'll die today”
~ James Dean

 'Looking Through Rose-Tinted Glasses'

 

“I'm pretty, but I'm not beautiful.
I'm sin, but I'm not the devil.
I'm good, but I'm not an angel.
I am just a small girl in a big world trying to find someone to love.”
~ Marilyn Monroe

 

 There's re different ways, but then again,

there's always your way.

 “You only go around once, but if you play your cards right, once is enough.”
~ Frank Sinatra

“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to."
"I don't much care where –"
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go.”
~ Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland

 See ya in December!
