Just wondering how you all spark your creative spirits. When your muse is playing hide and seek... How do you find her again?

Beginnings

It has taken me a while to actually create an art journal page that I am proud of and willing to share. IN the beginning I tried for perfection and almost lost the artist lurking inside. I am now beginning to understand and accept that if I'm having fun and I like the end result then that's all that really matters but I do hope that some of you will like something I do every now and again. Some of the art pieces and journal pages on this siteContinue

This is a film which I made out of a drive at night through Frankfurt/Main. The music is from my husband Ralf. Our first common musicvideo project. Comments are always welcome.

High Tea at Low Sea

High Tea at Low Sea
July 12, 2010


This is a story of hope, persistence and magic for those of you who have, perchance, had a year like I have had. Just when I thought I had reached my breaking point from the losses, the wheel of life turned and positive things started to percolate to the top. This is my happy story about High Tea at Low Sea.

The day began early for there were many miles to travel. Kindred spirits piled out of cars at… Continue

Angels needed.......

I went to visit my Uncle several weeks ago & much to my surprise he collects postcards. He has 2 cork boards full. His one desire is to 'see' several full with no more room. So my quest begins.

Thank you so much! I wanted the light to focus on the center of her body/soul as she turns away from it all.

It entirely makes sense to me. :-) Have you read "The War of Art" by Steven Pressfield -- its a short book but very powerful. He kind of makes official a lot of what I had figured out for myself. Really worth a read ... helped me get over my hump a…

Thank you both! Ruth, you know, when I called this vellum, I actually meant bristol and looking at the cover, I'm not even positive it's that. Strathmore has a bristol version of the Comic Strip boards but I don't know how it stacks up to this. I di…

Milliande's Vision


~ For me what is sometimes missing in my life is a place to share with women, just women.

~ There is a primal inborn need in a lot of women, to connect, to nurture each other and to feel like you are able to come, sit by the fire , make art and talk about the beingness of your day.

~ If I call for that need to be met with my inner voice of longing only another feminine voice seems to be able to answer that call

~ Here I would like to provide a space for women to be women, in each others company with nothing to prove and nothing to hide .. just being made welcome to explore their individuality to creative art expressions

~ Lets sit around the fire and make art and nurture our aching souls

~~ Feel free to explore all the little Sub-Groups offered here
to find one that suits your own style of artistic expression

♥ A willingness to explore the creative arts viewed throught the eye of your soul ♥ Deep respect for the beauty and individuality of each woman who chooses to share of herself and her artwork in our Community ♥ A love of life itself ♥ An openess to reclaim your connection with the sacred feminine ♥ A knowing that to create is your first and foremost birthright and that by trusting your intuition you will know instinctively what to create and when you do it will be the perfect time, always ... Before joining please familiarize yourself with our Community Guidelines
