Heart Speak - Preface

 Preface 5-15-13            
   
The energy at the end of 2012 set this soul work in motion. I, Melodie, am sharing my spirit art, the messages from channeling my paintings, and my growing awareness and bond with Nature. You will see why I chose to share the liveliness of my paintings. My constructive ideas are a spark from the masters, guides, angels, and all the other unseen forces that are willing to work with me for my Highest Good and the good of all living beings. They have interceded to inspire me and to assist me in bringing forth my creations. As you will also see, Nature and Art intertwines as the vines (Art) and the beings on and within the vines interact with Nature and our ultimate naturalist God that leads us on this glorious hike through Nature. I am not leading the hike, you are. You will undoubtedly do this from different vantage points, perspectives, and angles. At one point along your hike you may find that you are the turtle, the rock, realize that you are a branch, or even a cloud or star in the sky. Through the course of your journey you may know that the the way that Spirit leads is not outside your body but is an incremental part of your Heart which is connecting you with your Oneness of Being.  So I therefore do not take my responsibility lightly to share my sacred connection with Nature. I wish to convey to you the importance of all the precious, loving beings that constantly work for us, with us, and for our Highest Good.

Music is Great White Spirit's drum that beats the rhythm of our Hearts. It is the very thing that uplifts our Spirit and our Soul.  It celebrates by announcing the Truths that we seek in our Heart. Mother Earth's wildlife is inspired by angels and elementals to harmonize with the drum. Everything in nature is synchronized to move perpetually as the tiny parts in a clock do to accurately function. So Nature is constantly and consistently at work with us if we are willing to listen. We receive so many grand gifts of Love if we only have the patience to receive them. Delight of dance ensues as we feel music in our hearts by partaking in the experiences that different races and cultures are so willing to share.
    

The Second Coming

The Second Coming                    Reading 3-12-13
There was a lot of power in my voice as I sang the Lord's Prayer; ever was sustained. Recognizable change is occuring now. I played my turtle-squirrel rattle. Thank you turtle, for guiding us on our way and squirrel for making our journey joyous. I feel comfort in my body and breath; am relaxed. Thank you sodalite for your inner peace. The sky is holding Light and is still. Everything else is unfolding into its magnificence. Spring is a time of unfolding. The unfolding is a connection to Nature (I can visually see unfolding happening in my painting at this point as I receive the message). Thank you sycamore for augmenting our connection to Nature. Spring unfolds with impeccable precision. Military songs that I am getting are symbolic of the triumph of our assured freedom as a symbol of Heaven's unfurled strategic plan. Our outcome is detectable by us as we unfold into the Light. There is an acceleration of this event. This occurence is gaining momentum. The Light quotient is increasing and enhancing our Oneness. Thank you onyx for the vision of our future. We are like a immense field of sunflowers; all facing the Sun, the Light, Source. AND SO IT IS!

A Vision

A Vision 11-24-04          Reading 5-12-13

Nov. 8, 2004, I had a vision. There is a vortex at my kitchen sink. I realized when I was washing dishes that I was meant to paint my vision and that my painting is  a past life connection; the power, the truths, and the sacredness that goes with it. I was meant to capture that power and freedom on canvas. I have had many light bulb moments when standing in that location.On Nov.9th, I was going out to the barn to feed animals and my gold (in color) Nephertiti called to me. I began the painting on Nov.10th  I was on the phone with Robert Cisko right before I painted the blue minstrel on the lower right. He was asking me how I was because my husband had just made his transition on Nov.16th. As soon as Robert saw the painting he said that he was trying to describe a vision that he had. He said, "This is it!"  It seems like Robert somehow through his psychic ability set off the new spark of ability within me to connect with my new gift. This was my first Spirit Art painting. I was told years before in a reading that it was as though my art was like a glass that is filled to the brim and that it would run over. My reading: I get St. Sebastian. Thank you for your presence.  Power is set into minds strategically as in a chess game. Each piece has a different way in which it can move. Their goal  is to guard the king and queen. In the painting, the minstrel is playing the harmony and heightens the vibrations that are being worked with here. The intent is to surround the area with energy that will keep that area safe. My left ear blocks as a symbol. St.Sebastian is known to have cured a woman of her muteness. The vine at the top of the painting sets my whole game into motion. This is the beginning of the entwining vines that connect man with Nature. Please read my Preface). The beautiful colors of the sky celebrate the angel's assistance with my envisioned goal in art and the goal of protecting the area that was back then. Thank you hare for helping me to recognize the movements and synchronicities in life.

Terra Cotta Sculptures

sTerra Cotta Sculptures

This is a unicorn that has been spooked by a snake and a space being that is telepathically calming the situation. A study of the  anatomy of a horse was necessary for me to create this scene. I also sculpted the Indian with his colt. I may or may not be doing a reading on  them. Nevertheless, they are still a part of my I AM that I can share.

Indian pictures that I love

 The pastel is by Esteinkraus and she captures the enormous love and the sacred connection that a mother has for her child.

 This was painted summer of 2010 and is representing that my Egyptian
past life I AM is merging with my Native American past life I AM.

 

The Indian mother is a beautiful pastel by Esteinkraus

This is a pencil, pen, ink, and oil drawing by Adam R. Dyer. I love the wisdom that is captured in this Elder Indian's eyes and the watchful pose of the crow. This picture fits in my blog so well since the gist of my blog is the significance of man's connection to Nature through his sensitivity, and how that connection enhances his spirituality. 

Phoenix

Phoenix 90's            Reading 5-10-13

Pete Fedak is a highly intelligent and knowledgable being that loves people. If anyone really experiences and shares life, it would be Pete. He knows a tremendous amount about Nature and about Native Americans and was an integral part of Warren Light Center. I will never forget a beautiful sand painting that his wife Jackie did at camp or the Ukrainian eggs that she etched. I loved the ceremony that we had in Pete's teepee, the firewalks, sweat lodge, and he was the person that rescued me when I fell at camp. Everyone else had driven off the grounds that night. He loves to give his famous bear hug and loves to hug trees.  He helped teach me to be calm, enjoy life, and to be my weird freaky self. Go Pete! This is funny because I just remembered that my friend Doug said that when I was writing for the blog, "Don't hold back". And I am not.

Drumming ensued with an Indian chant that followed the rhythmic pattern of 12 1234 12 1234, with the stress on the first beat. Then I blessed shagbark hickory from all four directions.  I Am the beautiful lush woods. In my inner vision, I keep seeing Christ's head in an intricate pink and orange
design. He emerges more clearly each time I say to myself that He is there. Osage, thank you for being the wonder of the wind that awakens hickory (our persistence) and our dreams. Thank you moss agate for helping us find the hidden treasures within ourselves and ensuring our personal growth.

I am sharing with you two assignments that I did in my teaching art class at Akron U. that was required for all education majors to take. I loved that class.
                                        

I just gathered a few items that had interesting textures and designs and put together. My favorite thing in this was the papery quality of the onion skin and the colors in the pop can.

This is layered crayon of different colors with black India ink over it. Then it is scratched down to the desired color.
