How to use your 5 senses to raise your awareness

Revealing Life - Dina Soker
At first, nothing is clear. Only bits and pieces through the fogs of the unknown.
Nothing connects, Nothing makes sense, No logic found.
As we move along our lifes journey, we begin to connect the dots, to match the pieces together.
The puzzle of our life begins to unfold for us, and whispers: life is amazing


How to use your 5 senses to raise your awareness

Did you know you can raise your consciousness and awareness using the five senses you were born with? For starters imagine you immersing within an activity and focusing only on this activity.

Listen to a song and let the music flow through your body, watch a sunset, taste a delicacy, feel the softest of silks, the slightly cold feeling when you touch it. Feel how light it is and how smooth. Smell the scent of freshly baked bread from the bakery down the street.

When either of these events happens, you feel for a tiny second of your life captured in this very special moment. You can be present in that very moment, experience it, and know what that same moment is here to teach you, show you, and give you a gift.

Imagine eating in a restaurant; until the food gets to the table people tend to talk loudly and focus about anything else but the silence. But once the food gets to the table there is a moment of silence in which every person is in his/her own world with the food and the flavors experiencing them to the fullest.

The goal is to achieve awareness in everyday life. Once you do, it will become easier to be more and more focused on the intense experience and feeling you are going through rather than the smoke screen that is there to distract and deceive you sometimes. When you see a beautiful sunset, why do you linger and stare at the beautiful colors admiring them and watching the sunset as it changes its colors slowly until it is gone and the sun has gone down?

All these happenned for the very same reason. For a very specific moment you become aware of your environment and become almost one with it. So next time when a bird sings or you see a beautiful flower let it linger with you and focus on the song or the flower, you will find a whole new world.

Consciousness Awareness Art

Dimensions
In cold, in warmth, through all dimensions of our life, we are so fragile as we pass along our endeavors.
Let's be gentle with one another, after all, we are all the same in all dimensions.


Consciousness Awareness Art

This form of art was created and thought out by yours truly and I see it as a branch of contemporary, modern art. Consciousness Awareness paintings allow the observer to realize something about their life he or she might have not realized before. That is my goal with my art; I want to help people through art, to see life better, things about themselves, their surroundings, and maybe even things they need to know about but do not really want to know.

Now, I know, it sounds scary, but if you can understand something, viewing, and studying visual art paintings; I believe that this is one of the greatest gifts I can give. I believe my art needs to come with a text, less to explain, but more to guide the viewer through the many complicated stages deep inside his consciousness and guide them in the best direction.

Painting for me is a LOVE and PASSION. I focus most of my time on it beceuse I love to create these beautiful paintings. For me each brush stroke "tells a story" that is different from the previous brush stroke. I wish to convey to you this very story, and out of this very story get you to comprehend something about yourself.

Contemporary Art Best Way to Decorate Your Home!!!


Contemporary art is a great way to bring color and beauty into your life and home. Contemporary art is often a different representation of something, not in its true form,(but) sometimes it is(instead of "it is" how about it's same thing just less words)an abstract representation.

Contemporary art comes in many different styles - some are wild splashes of loud color,(while) others have smooth lines and warm colors that give a sense of calm(calmness) when looked upon.As contemporary art stretches across so many genres and forms, it would suit very well with most home decorating styles.Once you have bought your favorite art piece; explore unique ways of presenting it to your audience.

If you have several pieces of art that you want to hang on the wall, try grouping them creatively to add a more interesting look. If the art piece is small enough, why not frame it and place it on a shelf or side table. Art doesn't have to be hung on the wall. You can simply place it on the floor and lean it against a wall or a piece of furniture; perhaps against a side table or on an easel- just make sure that the art piece will not obstruct walkways, and that it isn't too large or too small that would make it look out of place.

Why not tell a story by including accessories or other decorative ornaments to compliment the art work? For example, if you have a piece of Asian contemporary art on the wall, you can place a small coffee table below it and decorate it with Asian antiques - maybe include some stone carvings of Buddha, or perhaps a few candles or flowers to add more (of a )variety and complete the look.

Once your contemporary art piece is hung on the wall, use creative lighting to bring attention to it and to give it a stunning look. There are so many exciting ways you can display contemporary art in your home.

It might be different


It might be different

From inconceivable dimensions we are created and evolve. Escorted by the invisible wisdom, yet we all grow, and see the world in our very own particular way. But is the world really as we see it? Are we effecting the hidden forces which create our world? When we change our point of view at everything, it transforms for us accordingly in return. Yes, it might be different, here and now. We have the power to make it happen in our lives. We are longing for contact. We want to belong. We want to love, to live, and to be loved. We want to make a difference in our lives. Are we willing to do whatever it takes? To give it a chance?

Contemporary Abstract Art living to paint

Birth of a journey
Here it begins; we have just emerged from the invisible and ever evolving spiraling dimensions into here and now. They did their best to bring us here. They now fade away after their task is completed.
Silence... awareness... wonder... a new journey has begun for me. Fresh start... new hopes... My road is unknown ahead... Now it's my journey... Now it's my way.

Contemporary Abstract Art living to paint

Colors bring back life into a grey world, they bring back happiness, the inside fire and passion to things.

Art brings back all that is in colors and even a billionfold more.

Art inspires you to think to expand your thoughts and understand what the artist meant by this brush stroke or by that dotted line.

The whole painting is for you to experience and learn from the artists' thoughts and sweat put into that specific painting.

The frustration the artist might have had while painting it, the happy moments when they saw the painting whole in their head or even better when they finished the painting.

The fact of the matter is the viewer can't really grasp the whole painting in one sitting or viewing, Just like a movie; when you find out new things about it after every time you watch it.

Every painting has its own story and its own personal meaning for each and every person that views it.

When an artist creates a painting (and I say create because they put some of themselves into that painting), they work with themselves and better themselves through art. It is their way of expressing their life, daily routine, hopes, visions, thoughts, wants, and also their passions and dislikes.

A painting can show anything and express everything,you just need to be open to receive it.
