Finished Dali.😅
I've put Philippe Halsman' s original 1953 titling on my print👽 (in a funky retro font.) If you'd like a signed print (Dali is no longer signing) I will be happy to sign and mail it to you. $25 shipping included. It's 11x14 on heavy stock.
Send me your address and I can send you over an invoice.❤

When The Muse takes over. It is on Her terms for sure. Needed to do a portrait for Creative Arts Art Show. Who better than Dali!🎨
.
Didn't anticipate staying up until midnight to get this painted. It's acrylic on canvas, 9 x 12. I haven't painted for years. And yet...here he is.
.
For me, Dali is a great example of living into the Soul, those daring and beautiful and fully expressed humans who place the seriousness of the Soul over any personal agenda. I think in handing over the reins, they agree to life as an adventure, as a calling - and they, (as a personality) try to stay out of the way. Which is a paradox in itself. .
They know the game involves saying 'yes', it really is the first rule of Life, as well as of improv.👏 Saying yes allows the show to go on, - just say 'no' in an improv performance- and watch the action fizzle out.👎
.
My message from Dali, as I spent time with him over the evening, was to be braver. ❤To listen to my heart, my Muse, the Soul, that very often has an entirely different agenda than I do.
And what's wrong with that? Don't I long for newness, the experience of being alive? Somethimg that challenges and excited me? Hell yah. C,mon, who doesn't want to be a daring and beautiful and fully expressed human?
Damn those torpedoes already

I love how a new cook book can become an adventure! 🍅🍆☘
.
It's like a vacation - different sights, smells , tastes. A beautiful healing for the senses! Diving deep into TURKISH delights. This months practice.
.
Turkey is a delicioisly big place, and we're already addicted to Pide, Köfte and Menemen. Exitedly exploring regional recipes from the Bosphorus to the Black Sea. Eggplant, tomato, lamb, yougurt, sumac, Turkish pepper flakes, parsley, mint and dill...OMG! .
When I lived in England 🇬🇧, I was gifted a beautiful cookbook with recipes and spice profiles from around the world. I practised a different culture each month- Those months seemed to pass normally, filled with school aged kids, rain, pubs, chippies, travel- and while England was part of my journey, my love for cooking bloomed and continues to make my life and tastebuds very happy. .
I learned to do things one day at a time. No goals set really, no 'In a month, I will have this skill set' Just one recipe at a time- and one day, there you are with a whole new relationship and experience of another culture's cuisine ❤
