Happy Holidays!

Creative Bliss is About Balance

I think it's very important for our holistic wellness to balance relaxation against hard work, serenity against activity, silence against conversation.

In the months ahead I'll be taking some of my own advice about balance and time-management. I will be focusing on completing some major projects.

Although I will not be posting on this blog often in the months ahead I will continue to contribute to my other blogs. Please visit them:

Of course please join me on LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter!

My Best Wishes to You!
I wish you and your loved ones all the beauty, love and blessings associated with the holiday season. May your dreams come to fruition and bring more than you could ever possibly imagine!

Wishing you creative bliss!
Renee

Think Positive Thoughts about Creative Bliss

"If you follow your bliss, you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while, waiting for you, and the life that you ought to be living is the one you are living. When you can see that, you begin to meet people who are in your field of bliss, and they open doors to you. I say, follow your bliss and don't be afraid, and doors will open where you didn't know they were going to be." ~ Joseph Campbell

"If I create from the heart, nearly everything works: if from the head, almost nothing." ~ Marc Chagall

“Whatever relationships you have attracted in your life at this moment, are precisely the ones you need in your life at this moment. There is a hidden meaning behind all events, and this hidden meaning is serving your own evolution.” ~ Deepak Chopra

"Variety of form and brilliancy of color in the object presented to patients are an actual means of recovery."
~ Florence Nightingale

"Art is not a thing but a Moving Spirit." ~ George Innes

"In our life there is a single color, as on an artist's palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love." ~ Marc Chagall

"A work of art is finished, from the point of view of the artist, when feeling and perception have resulted in a spiritual synthesis." ~ Hans Hofmann

"I look out the window sometimes to seek the color of the shadows and the different greens in the trees, but when I get ready to paint I just close my eyes and imagine a scene." ~ Grandma Moses

"In art the hand can never execute anything higher than the heart can inspire." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Art does not reproduce what we see. It makes us see." ~ Paul Klee

"We live in succession, in division, in parts, in particles. Meantime within man is the soul of the whole; the wise silence; the universal beauty, to which every part and particle is equally related, the eternal ONE. And this deep power in which we exist and whose beatitude is all accessible to us, is not only self-sufficing and perfect in every hour, but the act of seeing and the thing seen, the seer and the spectacle, the subject and the object, are one. We see the world piece by piece, as the sun, the moon, the animal, the tree; but the whole, of which these are shining parts, is the soul."
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors for you where there were only walls." ~ Joseph Campbell

What is Creative Bliss?

Creative Bliss is acting on the need, urge and passion to create art under any circumstances.

Many passionate artists I know use closets as darkrooms, kitchen tables on which to prop their easels, and create art with found objects because they cannot afford art materials.

These Artists create art because that is what they do. They have no choice. They don’t wait until the perfect situation or studio appears. They live their lives in creative bliss. And they make this world a much better place.
