This is Maggie's 2nd art exhibit in NYC. Maggie was in last year's The Story of the Creative, an international art exhibit held in NYC. It was such a successful showing that our family on the East coast was turned away on opening night. They stood in line forever with many other patrons of art. The gallery filled beyond capacity in what seemed like nanoseconds...
Fast forward 2014: Maggie and I are very grateful to be included in Year In Review 2013 among many other talented artists. If you're in NYC, please come SEE.ME Maggie says! WOOF WOOF
Namaste

MaggieMoose: A Balanced Art Of Rose & Twig
Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:
"What I dream of is an art of balance, of purity and serenity... a
soothing, calming influence on my mind, rather like a good armchair which
provides relaxation...
Art is our life. Maggie and I like to start our day off with a nice calm walk. We like to see the flowers in bloom, hear the birds chirp and maybe greet some humans along the way. This world of living art in three dimensions feeds our soul. The best part for Maggie is when we're back home and she can run outside in the yard, mill about the tree debri on the ground and select just the right twig. It's a Zen like thing for her to do. Peace and calm come across her face as she holds her twig for those brief moments...before I pay her with a treat to release it! Then Maggie plops in her cozy bed like a good armchair and enters into her state of total relaxation. Zzzs.

Eureka! Organic Street Art
Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:
"The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life
off of our souls."
Maggie's fully focused look
This weekend when we walked the rain filled mornings we came across some street art. We saw multiple leaf prints printed on the sidewalk like silk screened images. Maggie stopped in front of one leaf print as if she "found it". The great art discoverer Maggie! Except it wasn't a human artist, but Mother Nature herself. We were like Sherlock Holmes with our heads down when we continued along the sidewalk. Maybe we discovered nature's gold on the ground? We admired different leaf shapes imprinted on the cement. The other part of ourselves enjoyed the colorful 3D leaves scattered everywhere in between the clumps of pine needles bunched up. Wind and rain plumetted our neighborhood over the weekend. Our surroundings were washed clean of any dust, just like our souls were refreshed and renewed when we discovered the organic street art.
Eureka!

The Changing Art of the Butterfly and Duck
Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:
"If nothing ever changed there'd be no butterflies."

I love butterflies. Maggie thinks they're fun too. I received two wonderful photos created by Morgan; a 14 yr old with some amazing talent. I was excited seeing the creative genius come through her photos. Seeing what's not there is a gift. For Maggie and me we were humbled by the vision of what wasn't there, but now is....if nothing ever changed-there'd be no butterflies!

Morgan: If your reading this-keep the sharing your visions. Your art is a joy to see! Maggie & I know you're gifted! Morgan, this blog is dedicated to you!

Blooming Appreciation
Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:
"Creativity is so delicate a flower that praise tends to make it bloom, while discouragement often nips it in the bud. Any of us will put out more and better ideas if our efforts are appreciated."
Kuan Yin by Megan Wood
While walking Maggie I sometimes reflect how far she's come in her training. A lot of appreciative effort on both our parts. She has blossomed. It's a creative process discovering Maggie's personality and working together as a team. The foundation in all of Maggie is my appreciation for her blooming pawsabilities. So true is the euphemism that if you treat someone with the belief they will succeed they will, and if you don't, they won't. Maggie thrives on positive appreciation like a budding flower in the rain. She shows me creative pawsabilities are best for her success. Appreciation works. I'm rewarded with bouquets of doggy kisses! Blooms abound!
