Over The Moon

Posted on March 12, 2018 by Maria Doglio

“Over the Moon”, acrylic on Canvas, Feb 2018 ~ Maria Doglio

Moon-day Morning, early dark slightly lifting. The first day of daylight saving time. I sleepily shuffle through the kitchen, coffee mug in hand and open the curtains of the south east window of my front room gallery. I look out to find a crescent moon flirting with a cloudy sky, casting just enough light against them to create a dramatic, changing scene of illumination within the surrounding blackness. I’m painting it in my mind.

My thoughts turn to the comfort of familiarity. The countless phases of the moon, the sun’s rise and setting, the consistency of their daily orbits, ties us together in a familiar human experience on this particular planet. We humans watch in tireless awe at the ever changing, creative patterns they paint in their travels, day and night.

No matter how much we insist on our separateness, our countries, customs, languages and borders, the moon rises and brings us all out to stare at the night sky, as it dances in an arc with the stars. The sun rises to chase the moon and darkness into another night far away until it sinks again to follow the moon’s trail. The familiar play needs no translation. It brings our human condition together in oneness.

One night, as a full moon appeared among an amazing array of popcorn like clouds, I snapped a photo as the moon drifted through them, the clouds misting and reforming into a shape I saw as a wolf leaping over it. The inspiration to paint that scene resulted in “Over the Moon”, #4 in my wolf series, completing it. Here is my wall of wolves, where I like to sit and watch the morning unfold.

The sky has lightened now into pale shades of blue and yellow with a hint of pink on the horizon, while a heavy bank of billowy dark clouds move in against it, promising rain. The crescent moon stands alone now, waiting for the sun to show it’s face before moving on. A new day dawns.

Let nature inspire your creativity with abandon – the patterns are endless.

Art Flow 2018 & The Full Wolf Moon

Posted on December 31, 2017 by Maria Doglio

At home in my Front Room Gallery. Paying homage to 2017 on it’s last day and welcoming the energy of 2018 and the Full Wolf Moon on it’s first day.

Recently, as I stood in my art room, contemplating the swirl of potential paintings inside me, my inner muse began lining up which would manifest first on the canvas. I began to feel as if my feet were growing roots into the Earth, anchoring me in. Intuitively, I felt the big message was that much more is to come, so stay centered without stemming the creative flow. These moments of profound sense of being never cease to amaze me.

One personal important painting already has it’s beginnings on a 24 x 36 canvas sitting on my easel….the emergence of a visionary depiction of my wolf guardian on the edge of a wood, silently watching me. This vision appeared to me as I drifted into his realm during an acupuncture session. The charcoal sketch is already exuding the energy of his wolf spirit. It encourages me to stay focused and in tune with my inner guidance as I begin the painting process. It’s taken some time to pull the vision out of me from when it first appeared, yet here it comes at the precise moment of the Full Wolf Moon of 2018. The synchronicity of this painting’s appearance is like a personal portend of things to come in the new year and I hope to share more of my creative energy on this blog in more regular monthly posts.

2018

Universal Energy for 2018: 2 + 0 + 1 + 8 = 11

“In numerology the number 11 is a Master Number – ‘Master’ meaning it is of intense/high vibrational frequency and works within the aetherial, magical and transcendental realms of creation. Master numbers possess great potential for learning and growth, and can bring major transformations in your life.

The number 11 is the most intuitive number and is a clear channel to the subconscious. It is the number of leadership, personal power and spiritual truths.” ~ Simone Matthews, Numerologist at www.universallfetools.com

2017 was a tough year for many on our world. It was a year of wake up calls and change, destruction and renewal. A painting that I completed just before the Northern California fires close to home, was entitled “Rebirth”. It is an expression of beings gestating in pods floating in the cosmic soup of a universe. Another synchronistic painting! Each year we go through a ritual of renewal and rebirth. What we choose forms our path. May our wisdom prevail in our choices.

REBIRTH: Acrylic on Canvas, 2017

Rebirth, 2017

Upcoming 2018

HCA Exhibit: In January, I am excited to be part of the Healdsburg Center for the Arts annual Members Exhibition, entitled “Expressions”. This is my first participation in this wonderful gallery. The show runs from January 13 through February 4, 2018. If you are in the area, please stop by to enjoy the wonderful talent of local artists
Fabric Art: Potential plans to rejoin Made Local Marketplace in Santa Rosa this year with new fabric portfolio creations. I’m currently working on making items, creatively utilizing my abundant supply of fabric remnants. I also hope to do more fabric collage art. Watch for future blog featuring these items.
Canvas Floor Cloths: In 2016 I started a series of creating 12 canvas rugs, but never completed more than 4; this year, I hope to pick up on that to complete the series. They are intense and time consuming to create, but I’m passionate about them!
Joining Galleries: I have a goal for 2018 to join more local galleries and answer “calls for artists” ads. Stay tuned for more on my progress to get myself out there!
More Blogs! I’ve been lax in writing blogs on this site, but am setting the intention to write at least one a month. Also coming is a revamp of my website with the help of a more skilled webmaster!

As I look at the potential of 2018 before me, I begin to understand how important it is to give freedom to one’s creative flow, staying tuned to that personal power and open to growth that raises one higher. In that process, we leave the door open to welcome the circumstances and people that will enhance our lives and personal growth. We are magnets of the energy we exude. May we keep our energy at the higher vibrations.

Wishing all who visit here a magical 2018 filled with creative potential! Shine your light. Thank you for your support.

Solitude of the Forest

Posted on July 4, 2017 by Maria Doglio

Space Clearing for Our Hearts

West Fork Trail, Sedona, AZ ~ 2017, Acrylic on Canvas

Sometimes, if I can’t get to the forest, I paint a memory of one. For this I rely on old photos of places I’ve been that have brought me serenity and joy, allowing a higher guidance to come through. Nature gives us the opportunity to be quiet, to reconnect with the earth, ourselves and our relationship with each other. Here we can listen to the voice of our soul. Julia Cameron* expresses it so well when she says, “…we clear space in our lives in order to center and clear space in our hearts. The soul’s voice, the voice of guidance, then ventures into the clearing we have created for it.”

When I paint a memory of a place and how I was feeling at the time, that energy goes into the painting. If I am successful in that, the energy of the feeling goes back out to the viewer who is sensitive to the energy within the painting.

West Fork trail is in a magical forest – it takes you through meadows, wooded areas and streams deep within it. The painting, West Fork Trail, captures a small part of my journey during my first exposure to Sedona’s energy back in 2004. The memory of it and this particular spot was what I wanted to express in this painting. It hangs in my living room and I can view it from my couch and fall into it’s peacefulness whenever I need to.

Going farther back in time, is this view of a piece of the Hudson River.

Meadow on the Hudson ~ 2015 (Acrylic on two 4×5 canvases)

Meadow on the Hudson was an experiment in a continuous painting on two small canvases. It depicts a little scene from when I lived in Massachusetts and took a trip in a vintage red Thunderbird convertible with a passionate artist friend who I was in love with at the time. For me it has a light hearted memory attached to it, with much joy in breathing in this scene in the moment we were there. A painting can be small and still draw you in to a deeper place.

Finding Serenity captures a moment when the peace of nature with woods and river brings us back to center. We can breath deeply and let go. We can reconnect and ground ourselves, remembering the qualities of life that matter most. One on one time with my daughter was a precious moment.

Finding Serenity 2016 ~ Acrylic on canvas

Take time to nurture yourself. Treat your creativity as a spiritual practice, drawing from your authentic self by tuning in and painting intuitively from the inspiration you find within yourself. The joy of expression through painting is an endless process that keeps on giving.

* Excerpt from “The Artist’s way, Every Day” by Julia Cameron

WOLF ENERGY LESSONS

Posted on June 9, 2017 by Maria Doglio

Wolf as a Spiritual Pathfinder

Exploring the Wolf Animal Totem came from a gradual pull from my old friend, Spirit Wolf, who showed up in several visions during recent acupuncture* sessions. Wolf energy stayed with me so strongly in such a patient, protective and loving way, that it became a bit of an obsession. Channeling this energy into painting seemed like the only way I could make sense of understanding how and why this powerful energy was manifesting in my life right now.

I strongly feel that art embodies the vibration of the artist. The energy of what I paint is embodied into the subject and it often jumps out at me in amazing ways and affects those who can relate to the art piece on a personal level. Artists paint from a broader perspective when they are connected to their higher muse–art is a bridge from this higher perspective to the canvas. When I paint intuitively, I feel the tapping of that higher place and allow it to flow as I paint. If you can’t paint what you feel deeply inside, walk away from the canvas until you can. Wait for the flow and it will pop out into your expression on canvas. I always find this process amazing. It was in this way that I started my wolf paintings journey.

Aspects of wolf spirit that resonate strongly within me are: Strong connection with instincts or intuition; High intelligence, wisdom; Loyalty and communication; Deep desire for freedom. It is these aspects I feel in my life that are pushing me to strengthen my intuitive side and utilize my empathic nature to follow a new path. The old ways of being no longer work for me. The attributes of wolf spirit are helping to show the way by showing up in specific moments of my life with their messages. Wolf is the pathfinder. My wolf showed up waiting patiently, watching from the sidelines in a protective sense, reminding me that he is there when I need him. He also showed up “in my face” asking me to focus! Straying off my path is a habit of mine….staying focused, aware, and open to wisdom in an intuitive way will show me the new path that is calling me.

The Painting Process

My inspiration for my wolf paintings came from photos from the internet, (photographers unknown, but am grateful for the inspiration they gave me). I wanted my first painting to reflect the wolf I was reunited with during a shamanic healing journey vision in the early 1990’s. To this day, I can close my eyes, feel it’s fur and his energy as well as the deep emotion of that reunion. It was a very powerful journey. Spirit Wolf, for me, embodies the wolf of that journey.

Spirit Wolf ~ Acrylic on Canvas 12×16

Lady Gray Wolf

Balancing the energies, my second wolf painting has a more feminine quality. This spirit wolf asked to be called “Lady Gray”. She possesses a sweet elegance as she surveys her world in the cold dawn of a winter’s morning, greeting the potential of the new day. All very significantly symbolic for me! My daughter, visionary artist, Kate Langlois, said this of her, “She feels like she is so present and in tune with her innate nature of her existence, her divine duty/dharma!”

Lady Gray Wolf ~ Acrylic on Canvas 12×16

This painting journey had many lessons on many levels. Each subject was a huge challenge and wonderful lesson in painting fur! Capturing the spirit of the wolf that I was feeling was dependent on that flow from the higher perspective. You can feel it when it clicks in, and keeps you going until you allow the painting to tell you when it’s finished.

May you be inspired in your creative journey; challenge yourself – you’ll be amazed what you can do!

*Special thanks to David Wolff Filipello, L.Ac, whose kindred spirit, shared wisdom and healing sessions have helped reunite me once again with the wolf spirit energy expressed here. The journey never ends.

Inspired Sparks

Posted on February 12, 2016 by Maria Doglio

Journey of Inspired Thought

As 2015 drew to a close, I was in a whirl of crafting and baking for Christmas. Creative painting, on the other hand, was neglected. An empty canvas, which sat on my easel staring out at me usually was enough to spark my imagination. Yet, inspiration was giving me the silent treatment. Then, a photo taken on a whale watching trip in June came into clear focus as painting potential…but “can I do it?” still nagged me into inaction.

In Julia Cameron’s “The Artist Way Every Day”, she writes this excerpt for February 7th: “Out of the notion “I Can” comes the next thought: “I think I will.” The impulse is playful. It is an impulse born of pure faith. The artist has a vision and that vision includes the successful completion of the art he has in mind.”

So I moved into the “I think I will” mode. The photo was of my brother watching dolphins at a ship’s rail, which I playfully dubbed “Old Man and The Sea”. On January 5, 2016, he turned 75 and the desire to honor this milestone was enough to finally turn an idea into action and restore the “I can” to my psyche. I don’t really do portraits of people I know – if I do paint any faces, they are mostly made up out of my imagination in other-worldly, fairy-like or visionary images. I was due for a good challenge and rather pleased with the results–at least everyone knew it was him without a doubt!

“OLD MAN & THE SEA” – Acrylic on Canvas 12/2015

Slow Start Firing Up The Passion in 2016

Julia Cameron states: “Growth is an erratic forward movement: two steps forward, one step back.” And…“A creative recovery is a healing process.”

2016 – My desire was to start this new year off in a whirl of inspiration, but instead I seemed to have muddled through all of January, not producing much or finding that the ideas sifting themselves in my brain fizzled before they had a chance to blossom. Then seemingly out of the blue, I plunged into producing three challenging paintings in a clump of creativity that just burst out of the inner me. I love it when that happens! In the process I am inspired back to this blog, which I have woefully neglected. (I still have plans to revamp this website. I hope to make that a reality in the next few months.)

Recently I had picked up “Cezanne, His Life and Works in 500 Images” at the library, absorbing the feeling of his work. I am drawn to how he portrays serenity and strength. I often look to masters of his era to inspire me and teach when I feel stuck. All artists have dry periods. Try to see it not as a detriment, but a fertile void filled with potential. Many times, journal writing jump starts the process. When I feel a restlessness within the void, I know some creative potential is about to be born – that intuitive spark that fires us up again.

Three of the paintings that grew out of my January void reflect what pulled me at the moment in February. The first of these is an adaption of a photo of Cali & Co dance team called “Emergence into HERE”, inspired by their production of “Be Here Now”. My intent is to portray the surprise of emerging from the cosmos into consciousness of HERE.

Emergence into HERE 2016

This meditative scene from a walk along the Russian River with my daughter, is inspired by two photos strung together to show a bucolic stretch of river. My personal challenge was to portray the feeling of serenity in nature we both experienced.

“Finding Serenity” ~ acrylic on canvas, 2/2016

Sometimes even a fashion magazine inspires a theme for a painting, especially if you don’t have access to a live model. The inspiration for “Study in Blue” came from an ad for artistic tile. A few months back, I took a 3-day workshop on fashion drawing to help improve my skills in figures. This painting was a fun challenge for me to capture a pose, muscles and skeletal structure of the model. The blue skin makes her unique and I love the drama of it.

“Study in Blue” ~ acrylic on canvas, 2/2016

I have given myself enough successful challenges to keep wanting to push for more. Each painting allows growth into more. Painting in joy and a sense of playfulness brings the best results. If I find myself struggling with a painting, I leave it until I find that inner flow again.

May your creative path for 2016 lead you on an exciting path of self-discovery and expression. Take the road less traveled and see what it reveals to you.

Feminine Mystique

Posted on March 24, 2015 by Maria Doglio

TRIPPING DOWN A TOWN & COUNTRY LANE TO INSPIRATION

“Who knows what women can be when they are finally free to become themselves? Who knows what women’s intelligence will contribute when it can be nourished without denying love?”

“The only way for a woman, as for a man, to find herself, to know herself as a person, is by creative work of her own.”

― Betty Friedan, The Feminine Mystique

Flipping pages through a high society fashion magazine on a lazy afternoon, the unexpected and surprising inspiration for a painting came from a pretty, pouty young woman with a far away look, dressed in Channel Haute Couture, and to my mind, on the edge of rebelling into her own unique womanhood. Her unruly auburn curls made a statement of her individuality as they spilled out onto her shoulders in defiance of taming. I felt compelled to capture the essence of her porcelain face as she gazed out at her fantasy world from under an enormous black, veiled hat.

The Feminine Mystique. With artistic license, I borrowed from the magazine image to portray the feeling I wanted to present, which is open to interpretation by the viewer to create their own story about her. She has an aura of mystery that intriques and draws you into wanting to know more. She has the charisma, the glamour, but lets you know that deep down, she is much more than a pretty face.

FEMININE MYSTIQUE ~ 12 x 16 Acrylic Currently on exhibit at Towers Gallery, 210 N. Cloverdale Blvd, Cloverdale, CA $400.00

As you expand into your creativity, expect to be inspired in unexpected places. It is always a delight to find your muse leading you to push the envelope as you attempt to express your inner vision on the canvas. Trust your intuitiveness. I often put a blank canvas on the easel and wait for that intuitive pull. I wonder sometimes, if the canvas calls the muse until the energy of the calling reaches my consciousness, giving birth to inspiration. In this painting, I believe it did.

(Thank you to Town & Country Magazine, April 2015 issue, young model Stella Roversi, for your beauty and inspiration)

SHOW TIME!

Posted on February 17, 2015 by Maria Doglio

Celebration of Art at Towers Gallery

You are Invited to Join Us!

Fine Art, Fine Food, Fine Wine and Fine Music,
Saturday February 21st 5pm to 8pm

Music by Michael Hantman

Cloverdale is a small town in Northern Sonoma County with a big gallery. At the far end of Cloverdale Blvd, Towers Gallery occupies a large Victorian with elegant and inviting twin stairs leading to it’s entrance. Forty plus artists have gathered to show their work – paintings, sculptures, photography, jewelry, glass works, pottery, woodworking, textile craft and more.

A new show, called “New Beginnings” has just begun February 14th and runs to April 15th. On Saturday, February 21st, you can meet the artists at the opening reception.

Happy to be a featured artist in this show, I have been on a roll in my studio the last two months painting in preparation, building my inventory. Now that this show is hung, a wave of new paintings are on the horizon, still swimming in my head, waiting to manifest on canvas. These days, my easel is not empty long. I need more inventory, but I don’t want to rush it. Every painting is an experiment. Every painting teaches me. I like to savor the process and feel what pulls me to paint. When I am stuck, I look up the masters and contemplate their expressions in paint, or pull out an acrylic techniques book or peruse local artists works. Like life, we never stop learning, and in doing so, we keep expanding our perspective.

My art shows my eclectic wanderings. You can view two walls of my journey in art as you enter the gallery. Down the hall and around the corner is a little alcove with my textile craft of colorful pillows and a few more paintings. Art celebrates life, creative imagination and emotional expression. The Gallery is delightfully filled with it. Art moves us in a personal way when we resonate with a particular piece. Incorporating art that you love into your home is the ultimate sharing from the artist to you and keeps us all inspired.
