An Unfinished Life

“I believe art is foremost for the artist who creates it. You do it for your soul, and if the rest of the world gets something from it, that's a bonus.”  Marion Boddy-Evans


The above piece was selected for the cover of "Presence Journal," a publication for Spiritual Directors International.  It will be released September, 2010.  It is titled "An Unfinished Life."  It was a piece I did in memory of a friend who died while in his youth.  The poem I wrote and read at his eulogy.

To see beauty

And know that

Life abounds

In all majestic form.

For this I am grateful.







 

 


Fabric Paper Valentine Bookmarks

Posted by Rosie Huart at 08:55 PM on February 14, 2010 Comments comments (0)


These bookmarks were so much fun to make.  Snippets of lace, paper, ribbon, glitter

made up the ingredients of these Valentine gifts.  My children, grandchildren

and friends are the recipients.  Valentine's Day is one of my favorite

celebrations.  A time to remember those

I love and who I treasure.

Every day is a day to

celebrate

LOVE.

Painting Poetically

There was a feeling of excitement in the air as students from Rosie Huart's Lifelong Learning

class joined her at Synesthesia Gallery's opening reception recently.  It was a cold

evening outside, but with candles, music, art and wine the ambience inside was set and

the mood of warmth permeated throughout the gallery.





The Great Void

Soar


I submitted this piece to the American Watercolor Society juried exhibition this winter.  Even though it was not accepted in the show, I acknowledge the spirit it represents.  Soar symbolizes the gulf that lies between the void and flight towards wholeness. Traveling her path involves a leap of faith and trusting the journey of a lifetime.

Keeper of Thoughts

Keeper of the Word


In thinking about my resolutions and goals for 2010 I am wanting to make changes like so many people.  I've decided the importance of being happy.  So often I identify myself with what needs to be done, what I haven't done and even what I have done.  More often than not these thoughts like to persecute, condemn and judge. 


The above art piece "Keeper of the Word" that I created years ago signifies the importance of words and the power of words.  I've decided my next art piece will be titled "Keeper of Thoughts."  Sometimes it happens that I will be intrigued by a title and that is what will motivate me to create. 


My new thoughts will be about what feeds my soul, gives me life and how do I nourish myself.


"The discipline to exercise is to make a decision that nothing is more important than that you feel good, and that you are going to find thoughts that feel better."  Abraham


What new thoughts might you give yourself in this new year?

A New Thought

Posted by Rosie Huart at 08:12 PM on January 02, 2010 Comments comments (0)

Sometimes we realize old ways of thinking and believing do not give the results we would like.  Thoughts emerge and slowly letters become words.

This piece was created as a result of daring to think in new ways.....

ways that might change one's life.  Can

you dare to think different thoughts?

The Meeting Room Series


I love my meeting rooms.  It's where important things happen and where important things are said.  It's where I get to listen to my own voice.  I first noticed the meeting room when I told my young friend to look into my eyes because I had something to say to him.  I told him what he meant to me and that I would always love him no matter what ever happened.  He died within 2 weeks.  Where are the meeting rooms in your life where you say important things?

Messages of Truth

Waking from slumber

I gather thoughts as flowers

That love and yield peace.
