Circle's Calm - Nest

Circle's Calm-  Nest 

The circle is a complex symbol that projects the meaning of totality, wholesomeness, perfection, equality, completeness, absoluteness and eternity.   

To draw a circle looks easy at first glance, yet to draw a circle freehand requires deep concentration and perseverance if perfection and balance are to be achieved.  Repetitive practice is called upon.

 In Circle's Calm  art series, the circle to make a art statement.  Imagine a perfect circle that was then filled with peaceful colors, shapes and motifs to convey a story/ message.  Attaining the perfect circle, I could then transfer life to its inner section and tell my story with colors.  

This piece of art is meant to radiate life as well as positive energy that emanates from the calm within.

 My brush anchored and my strokes were calm as the colors merged and spread peace as my story enfolded. Both my body and mind remained calm so as to achieve positive energy.  I believe positive energy can radiate near and far.

The power of the calm positive energy emanating from the circle has a rippling effect, similar to that of a pebble hitting the water on a pond.

 Once we are touched by the circle 's calm, we can embrace our inner sense of permanence.  Permanence is both reassuring and offers comfort and a sense of safety.

The essence of calm captured in the art vibrates and radiates to the viewers, providing a sense of utter calm. My art in this series reflects my hope to have a positive impact on society by the immersion in calm.

** Nest is a home, a place we call for serenity and comfort.  The rabbits joyfully picked up the leaves

from the garden and brought  them home. With loving feeling, they build a sweet home.  Not luxury home that human envisioned to be, but is a home that nested with love.  Nothing is bigger than love and

peace in a real home.   They feel secure in day or night, sunshine or storm.  May all of us recognize the meaning of a real home should embrace. Simplicity folds in.  **

 

 

Circle's Calm- Garden 

** The pond is the nest for the water lilies and fishes. Waterlilies assemble themselves with big green

leaves surrounds. Fishes swimming by, harmony with tortoises, butterflies, dragonflies, nature of the small and strong.  They never question when is end of Covid, they just happy as can be, wash their hands when they needed, masked themselves and social distancing. Sunshine or storm, they portray the energy of calm . What binding this creatures with such strength ? 

A reflection we need deep thinking.

Garden is the nest, the home they live with harmony. Immerse into loving kindness and spread 

message to us human, seek deep thinking of purity in life.

Give with your kind heart, receive with joy. 

Circle's Calm - The Silence Night

             When the night folds in, the darkness envelope the sky 

              The moon floating in, as if the clouds that play the trick to our eyes

               In silence, the moon snap the colorful images of neon lights cast upon

               the forest, river, mountain and valleys. 

               Reflection of colors it chooses to play tricks on

               Transport us to the land of imagination

               Loving kindness is called upon

               Peace and calm be in the nest of every living soul

               Listen to the crickets songs, lullaby plays on

               Into the dream and restful night.

          

               These images and story are origin conceptualized by a humble painter with hope to deliver

                peace and calm to every nest.  Nest is our home.              Painter :  Meeleng Claxton

Circle's Calm- Emotion Flow

Each day we have different emotion that will flow like a stream, burst like

the lava.  This circle calm piece embody the balance flow, so we will

have the serenity of the day, and warm of the night.

The golden memories are part of the journey, we bind the good

thoughts together in a flow.

In dark we see color, and in colors, we see dark.

Balance in emotion is enforced.

Circle's Calm -  Bunny Love

Bunnies are in calm as they speak  with no noise.

Their eyes are expressive, in almond shape

They are small, but smartness abundance

Always show kindness alone or together.

Circle's Calm -  Van Gogh Whimsical World

Van Gogh's life story often portrayed by writers of books as sad and miseries.

In my derivation after reading books by different authors, I have high opinion

that his life is full of joy.  The joy  of an artist at his capacity only can feel, not by anyone that

only judge situation by the facade of what happened.

Van Gogh has the full capacity to paint all kinds of style, scenes, emotion he likes.

This is a gift not many artist has.

Hence, I painted Van Gogh in his Circle's Calm, holding his brushes in the 

Heaven and Earth, still painting with joy, his other expression as a floating spirit.

The lily bud is about to bloom, touches his head, enlightening him with new

inspiration. The waves that surrounds him , bring him calm and peace.

The river that flows on is next topic on his blank canvas. 

Van Gogh has own the calm of the circle, a perfect circle.

Flow - Infinite Purity

Flow series is about our life that has a finite term.  Yet if we see how the Shell life 

as similar to human life, has a finite term too. The Shell serve as another form of life, to

be a vase to hold water, and keep the flowers alive. In flow, it attain the infinite life,

with purity.

Flow- Infinite Serenity

The Clam shell flow continues as the river flow in calm.

It hold the Lotus lily with a jewel within.

Flow- Infinite Beauty

The blue shell hold the water keep the flora afresh.

They flow in the waterfall in harmony.
