Here is the portrait :).

Too wild to head back today. Laptop means one can do quite a bit away too, and so do books one takes along too.
So today I spent the morning working, and wondering about life and colour particles...
Black in the light is lighter than white in the shadow - I learnt from a book my son gifted me on colour and light .
I have just finished a course started in April with a lovely group led by Cherionna Menzam- Sills, being together with her recent book 'The Prenatal Shadow', and so today I was sitting with the thought of the dark in the light being lighter than white and light im shadow being darker than the shadow, as if it was a game of cards..so does light in the light trump the dark in the light? :) - I think so.
Images of today: a double rainbow ,twice, a stunning ominous sky, my traffic jam of the day was tiny, but I did learn how to trust reversing with two cows behind me...and a portrait of what being in these elements looked like,moments before a hailstorm.

Stillness in the landscape today. A lot of pastel tones. A deep contrast with the power of contrast, light and shadow and saturated colours from yesterday...although...the camera phone seems to disagree because I took these photos when the sum came through briefly

A lovely weekend ☺️

I am a toy poodle :). On 28th November I will be 15. I am mostly deaf now, but mum and I have a bond on trust and she just needs to crouch down for recall now...I can spot her from afar, even if my cataracts are getting bigger by the day. My mitreal valve, in my heart,is working less and less...but put me on a beach, instead of a sofa....and I am still as young as ever .

This was one of my happy moments at Leith School of Art - I need to get it framed - Today in the studio I have a lot of admin, systems, organising and clearing to do...so it cane to kind in my metaphorically visualising what to do with certain things ....
It might become one of the cards :) or a print :)

This Rubbish turned my day around and made me laugh a lot
Kind of homeopathic painting...treat the same with the same

'Sparkling moment'.

This is such a beautiful practice
What was your Sparkling Moment at work last week?
Mine was watching one of my students lying flat with just their head raised, after 6 months or so of practice. This person suffers from vertigo. In 6 months of coming regularly, they have learnt to observe the breath and its placements, they have learnt to notice when the mind grips, they have learnt to feel what softness and rest and peace feels like. These feelings have now been rooted enough in the practitioner's awareness to be able to trust, and observe and differentiate. The beginning of 'The Gap' :).
I watched how the careful adjusting of the props happened, with caution but no fear, and I observed and said nothing...til after, when my joy was very big at the practitioner achievement. So I said ' This week, you are my ✨️ Sparkling Moment'.
What has yours been?
