Many of the Subjects of The Spiritual Painting Series: "Life-Journey Metaphors" really came from some Recurring Dreams that I had over a few Years that Actually Manifested in A Very Moving Event that Occurred in My Life.
Interestingly, I was asked to participate in a Retreat at a Mountain Campground that once was Home to: the Black Mountain Arts College ( in Western North Carolina ). It was with a Group called: " Collaborations in the Creative and The Sacred" with a Wide Range of Creative People, Teachers, Counselors, and Clergy - who gathered to explore the Human Condition through Acts of Creativity - in Writings, Art, Music, Dance, and Drama through Symbolic Rituals and Revealings !
Actually, A Lot of the Rituals that I was Asked to Participate In were "Mirrors of The Dream Visions" that I'd Had for Years - and They Actually Manifested Themselves Very Close to My Dream-Images and through the Sketches and Paintings that had earlier Poured Out of Me TOO.
And, The Retreat was Particularly Significant in It's Timing for Me also - as It followed a Period of Time that I had Studied and Worked with An International Psychotherapy Institute ( for 4 Years ) where I Studied Psychology &, Psychiatry, Religion & Theology, and Spirituality and Theosophy - and Actually had Creative Opportunities to Work to "Help-People - Help Themselves" with Personal Growth and Transitions so, This Retreat was Like "Ordination Into A Life-Service of LOVE & LIGHT for Me" !
You Know - It is Quite Remarkable that My Life-Journey has Been So Full of Wonder - Like This Happenstance of "Collaborations" Occurring At Such A Perfect Unfolding of Time in My Life ! But There have Been SO Very Many More - and I Believe That There Will ALWAYS Be MORE - And THERE ALWAYS ARE !!!
Truth Is That I Really Do Try to Keep An Open Mind-Heart, Soul, and Body because "Doing The Personal-Homework" to Keep My Wave-Length Clear of Static and Interference is SO WORTH IT - So I Can Be Ready to BE ONE With THOSE MAGIC MOMENTS OFFERED To ME - and It Really Can Be A Way Of LIVING And LOVING - That You Can Have Faith and Trust to COUNT-ON - Over and Over and OVER AGAIN. YES, IN THE UNFOLDING OF LIFE , It is Really Incredible To Know That We Can Be Led to Perfect Times With Perfect Wonder and Touching Lives That Are Significant - and THEM TOUCHING ME ! COULD LIFE AND LOVE BE ANY BETTER - I JUST DO NOT KNOW ??? !!!
HEY WORLD, I Am GRATEFUL THAT I CAN LIVE NAKED EXTERNALLY - LIKE I LIVE NAKEDLY WITH MY MIND, HEART, AND SOUL AND EMBRACE "LOVE AND LIGHT" and Whatever's Next - "NAKED-AND-TRUE" !!!

Thanks Harold, for your enlightening letter! It sounds like an amazing experience (I don't suppose there was any nudism involved?) I think it's down to each person how much they gain from events like the one you described; it sounds like there was something for everybody. I'm sure that you yourself gained a lot from it. Your pictures are beautiful, by the way.

Thank You for Your Kind and Thoughtful Reply. Yes, We Each have Special and Unique Journey to ( Hopefully ) LEARN And GROW-THROUGH and Perhaps With Those Challenges that are Presented to Us to Encounter and Experience, and Work-Through That-We-Turned-The-Challenges Into-Opportunities, and That Our "Loving-Cups" Overflowed onto Others with BLESSED POSITIVES.
