100 slips of good intentions

100 Slips of Good Intentions
"I've learned that the greatest challenge of life is to decide what's important and to disregard everything else."
anonymous

Life's wonderful lessons,......be grateful they do not end. Someone once asked me, "When do I get to the point when I stop learning lessons?"....You can just imagine what my answer was to that......"At the end of the trail, I imagine."
Everyones always searching for the big day, answer, gift, break, etc.....When really the secret to life, the one you are living now is so easy. Of course, that may be the problem. Stop resisting!!! Isn't it wonderful how you don't have to tell the sun to come up, or the birds to sing or now really stay with me here, tell your heart to beat!!!  Your brain takes care of that for you.  Don't you think its time to go with the flow, ride the tide, seat back and take a deep breath. Take time to research yourself and find out what you truly like to do.
What is your bliss? No, not a simple question, I know. But this year. While I have more time on my hands then usual, my bliss is experimenting with different art techniques.
I call them my healing painting. They have nothing to do with commissions, or exhibits, or even trying to display and sell them.......MY BLISS....IS TO CREATE.

What's on my Easel

"The Corners of My Mind"

Acrylic, 8" x 10"  This is the third piece of artwork I created for the poster for the Vagina Monologues.


I was trying hard to figure out what it is that separates each women from each other and the lives they share with the world.
It is true that women wear many faces. It starts when they are young and  innocent, letting their imaginations run free.
As woman  matures some of that innocents fades away.  They must learn to get along, co-exist and change with lives situations.
She will become a  daughter, sister, cousin, aunt, lover, wife, and mother.
Each with its own mask, each with it's own set of rules.
But as I have read many stories about women, their stories have one common thread. Of course, this too might be said for all mankind as well.
We all want to be accepted, we all want to be appreciated, we all want to be loved.
Enjoy my artwork and enjoy the song that inspired it. 



Deep within the corners of my mind
Melody Gardot
I keep a memory of your face
And I only pull it out
When I long for your embrace
Deep within the corners of my mind
I'm haunted by your smile
As it promises me joys
Like a journey to a tropic isle
It's not hard to see what you do to me
It's like a page right out of fist time wave
Though I try to fight
All the word you write, leave me standing
In the starry robe in some tragic lovers place
But deep within the corners of my mind
I'm praying secretly
That eventually in time
There'll be a place for you and me
That eventually in time
There'll be a place for you and me
There'll be a place for you and me
Deep within the corners of my mind

What's on my Easel

The Spin, acrylic, 4' x 4' original fine art by Jean Hart
This has been on my easel for awhile. I can't tell if it's done.
It's one of those paintings that you can't stop messing with. I love circles, and mandala's but I have a hard time getting them to be symmetric. I do everything free hand so there's a lot of back and forth work going on.
I like the modern design and the colors are muted which I like as well. It's a big canvas, 4' x 4' and I think I filled it just fine.
All comments are welcome on this one. Like I said I think this one is a work in progress.
Be inspired,
~Jean
