This is a result of experimenting with a different medium&#8230;digital, instead of paint.  Interesting!  It still has energy! 
If anyone has any thoughts or insight as to what these paintings work on exactly;   let me know.  thanks.

<p>This is a painting that has subtle energies emanating from it.  Yah!  I know.  Somehow, my healing energies as an energy healer/reiki master has merged with my artwork.  I know I have done this in the past, when I first started painting.  I kind of ignored it, and well, thought I was imagining it&#8230;..for how could that be after all.?!  Its not like I was intentionally channeling reiki into them.  This year I was laid off work (from a real job) and this gave me more time to meditate and focus on creating my art.  One day after I stepped back from the painting in progress, I felt this familiar energy coming from the painting.  ( Like the one @ 15yrs ago )</p>
<p>I invite anyone and everyone to spend some time with this painting and ask you to kindly share your experiences if any. I will be posting more energy paintings in the future.   Also&#8230;.if there are other artists out there that are willing to come out of the closet and share there own experiences.  I suspect this may be a phenomenom of healers and artists&#8230;..don&#8217;t know.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p style="text-align:center;">I like experimenting with my art&#8230;whether its with the paint, paper, support, brushes, non brushes, removing layers, textures&#8230;..using the same materials in unconventional ways&#8230;.I was reading someones blog the other day and he was referencing an author&#8217;s book about there being basically two types of artists: experimental and conventional..    I had not really thought about it before&#8230;.but it does make a lot of sense. Perhaps that&#8217;s why I prefer the abstract genre&#8230;as I can create something new&#8230;.I have no interest in replicating something that already exists.  Mind you, I didn&#8217;t go into this consciously, just noticing what is.  Please know that I can certainly appreciate the skill of artists that do replicate, even if it is their own interpretation&#8230;..this goes for musicians as well.  I&#8217;m just exploring what drives us&#8230;Where does that propensity come from?  It is making me think how this apply&#8217;s to many walks of life, not just conventional or experimental artists, but also in the broader scope of life!  I think it is  important for us to honor and acknowledge each others path whether or not we personaly understand it or not; or for that matter agree with it!  Just makes you think; at least me1 Anyone want to comment and add to these thoughts are welcome.   I hope I can find that blog again. I forgot to save it.    Just remembering, in a former life I was involved with songwriting, and collaborated with some musicians with my lyrics&#8230;.anyhow&#8230;.I remeber being puzzled why a musician would just do covers and be satisfied with that??#@     Know I think I&#8217;m starting to get closer to the answer.</p>

<p style="text-align:center;">The image evokes a steaming pot of aromatic exotic tea&#8230;..</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">that which could illicit a zenful moment.</p>

<p style="text-align:center;">to give it a rich texture. I hope you enjoy viewing it.</p>
