Our ancient ancestors worshipped the Sun and invented the concept of Time, creating almanacs, calendars and monuments in praise and worship to the passing of Time from this Life to the Afterlife.
These days we fashion our minutes and hours into pretty little timepieces we wear on our wrists or hang on our walls.

Hello and welcome…
as I embark on one more of my metaphysical pursuits as I explore Zen and The Art of Rock Painting.
More ZEN and The Art of Rock Painting
Zen is the here and now.
Being mindful of what you are doing.
Focusing on every moment.
Meditation
Mantra
Repetition
Completion…
Sounds a lot like a Zen acrylic rock painting class to me…
Or at least I hope that’s part of what my new Acrylic Rock Painting class will be.
Focusing on…
Transforming ordinary stones into colorful works of art
Using mind, heart and imagination…
Letting your creative energy flow!
The Art of Rock Painting And The Kindness Rocks Project
I have become immersed into The Art of Rock Painting, not only because I am amazed and beguiled by cave drawings and the wonderful creations one can create from some simple materials and methods…but…
it also gives me a way to share inspiration, aspirations and good wishes to the rest of the world, too, through organizations like The Kindness Rocks Project, which is about spreading hope, inspiration and motivation to unsuspecting strangers…
And…if you don’t want to paint or you can’t make the class, but still want to participate in The Kindness Rocks Project, you can always buy rocks to share online.
In our first acrylic rock painting class, we are going to create a Basic Fairy Rock Cottage, and an Inspirational Decorated Stone (for The Kindness Rocks Project, if you wish to participate). It’s not necessary to relinquish your stone art to the Kindness Rocks Project. That’s optional. You may wish to keep your artwork to give away as lovely gifts, you might wish sell them, and also probably want to keep some for yourself! 😉
