“Energy Center Opening” and “The Human Aura” : A-painting-a-day in oil or pastel series by Charlotte Artist/ Eco Art Girl
FINDING THE ELECTRICITY or SENSING THE ENERGY PRESENT AROUND US
I am constantly reminded that we are all spirits living a human experience by what I read, see and hear. We are in effect present awareness or pure consciousness residing in a body- I’m sure you have heard that somewhere?
Maybe you haven’t?
Maybe you have heard we are just a wave of energy forming into a thought?
Maybe you haven’t?
THAT is just a thought. The thoughts keep coming. They don’t ever go away or disappear.
Life keeps rolling along whether you harness your thoughts or not, whether we even collect our thoughts- or not- or even pay attention.
Luckily, we have the chance to do that if we so desire and the key lies in finding and keeping the good thoughts. All your answers lie within yourself. As a girlfriend of mine once said, “check yourself.”
MY ART THOUGHTS:
I have had these 2 paintings in progress in my studio space for awhile with no titles assigned to either and completion was evading me.
Today, while sorting thru my thoughts the right titles became evident -clear as day in my mind’s eye.
The first may appear to you as “thrown paint on a block of plywood” but it is the result of applying many thin layers of oil paint, much like the covering and uncovering process that went on in my head to finally reveal a truth. That is why I have named it “Energy Center Opening.” This heavy type of plywood-like material was brought to the building as a donation. It stared me in the face until I decided to experiment on it using oils that were on hand. It is wired to hang on the wall but I have it leaning. It is simple, not contrived in subject matter and is almost primitive-like, but its weight represents something of substance versus the soft, powdery look it exudes; edges are cream like the walls. More importantly, it provides a lesson- my lesson and it is now complete.
It is square, just my photo is a bit askew.

These 2 paintings represent the journey I am on- an awakening to many new abilities, thus the titles “Energy Center Opening” and “The Human Aura.”
Sometimes, people or events help us to realize deficits we have and the unseen energy we are emitting.
There is much beyond your five senses and it can affect you and those around you, so I am finding it takes much self introspection and control not to send out the wrong signal. Sometimes, you miss- you may be just flat out tired- you may let others down and miss the opportunity to create an uplifting moment. When this happens, perhaps this is a time to get the chance to pay close attention, look at your feelings and find your truth. By doing so you will increase the positive energy around you. Today, I heard the message. It has been faint all along.
If someone tells you you’re energy is low consider them a treasure and do the following.
Visualize New Energy
How To Pay Attention and Change Your Energy:
- sit comfortably
- feel your breathing
- listen to all sounds
- notice your sense of touch, smell and how you are sitting
- close your eyes and open your mind and heart
- think of what you have received, what you saw and heard
- visualize or focus on the energy needed to change its impact
- you are left with the process of becoming aware of yourself, your inner being, your inner thoughts, your inner eye.
- You may find another method to accomplish this such as a long walk, yoga or meditating.
Remember, Does Not Wisdom Call?
You may want to re-connect or thank people in your life that have the greater understanding to tell you this. This may mean they are farther along the journey than you are.
My creativity changes thank goodness; however, a common thread I see is the water imagery that keeps surfacing so these “art posts” will eventually fall under the “misc tab” on my website:www.rlistudios.com.
“Eco Art of the Carolinas:” Marshscapes and coastal estuaries pull at my heart so these images fuel my process. More images and information can be found on my website: www.rlistudios.com.
Studio location: 1517 Camden Road in Historic South End design district of Charlotte, NC- by appointment
Thanks for viewing!
Environmental wealth can be seen in my focus “ECO ART OF THE CAROLINAS.” Pastel marshscapes and my oil paintings I hope highlight the natural beauty of marsh views, ocean vistas and coastal estuaries that I am able to capture with a photograph, or recall from memory. I hope to raise the local consciousness about the importance of one of the planet’s most critical natural resources: our coastal marshes and the adjoining coastal waters. This series on the wetlands, what I call “ECO ART,” promotes awareness of the dynamics that thrive in these fragile ecosystems. Wetlands provide essential needs to humanity and it is this message I convey on my website and post on my blog: www.roselynnrlistudios.wordpress.com This energy provided by nature propels my art along. These vibrant ecosystems, the area between land and water support life itself- environmental health and humanitarian health are one and the same. I am grateful there is an abundance of land and special places which provides great fuel for a working artist. I never grow tired of images such as these to paint.
