What I see

Did you ever find solace in something bringing you immense joy and harmony? For the subject of this dream (rainbow pieces #0003), serenity first appears to be found in books. Our protagonist (which I affectionately decided to call Maude) is walking around peacefully eyes closed, literally browsing through a book as if she was walking in a wheat field letting her hands be delicately caressed by nature whilst running through wheat. Words are flying off the pages of her book, swirling around her and turning into shapes, taking form and becoming part of the expanding plane around her. Don’t be confused, it doesn’t come from printed characters on a piece of paper. It arises from a much deeper place. Her higher consciousness is all-seeing, she understands that these shapes, colors, stars, are all from the same fabric. That which gives true power to words, power to manifest, power to amaze, power to build, power to vibrate in tune with he/she who is able to see the True Source shining through. Radiating Love and feelings, that’s the True Source. That’s why it’s so beautiful. But, mind you… It’s just a dream… Or is it?

What I feel

I feel warmth and peace. I feel reverence and an invitation to look up to that irradiating force that is so much bigger than us but that is standing right in front of us. The Universe is so kind that it bends itself at an angle to allow us to wonder at its beauty, all the elements are bent: the sun allowing us to see its core made of love, the sky, the clouds, the ocean, the fire burning on the surface, the ground… Everything resting in balance on the underlying fluid equilibrium that harmonizes all things. The big book onto which Maude is peacefully walking is the springboard that propels us into this contemplative world where everything is possible.

Conclusion

The world around us changes according to our vibration, I truly believe that. When we pause for a moment, take a deep breath with our eyes closed, allow it to sink in and simply are present to that one single act of love towards ourself, feeling the caress of the cool air coming in our nostrils, coming out of our mouth warmer and a little moist, we are aware. This awareness is the doorway to inner peace and more importantly, a direct road to Love. Whenever you stray from the person you want to be today, pause, close your eyes, breathe in, breathe out, and let go. 🙏 Thank you so much for sharing your art Meryem, I was transported into your illustrated dream with grace. (And I’m sorry if her name is not Maude, that’s what she told me when I was gazing at her earlier and asked for her name… 😜) 🙏✌️

Martin Blais stache and finger! — Photo of myself with a random stache and a finger on my face… 😅

About this initiative

For the past few weeks, I have been driving a campaign to offer support (ever humbly) to my fellow NFT creators and I must say, I have had the opportunity to come across amazing artwork. It is a real adventure in itself.

I decided to start writing a few thoughts about random NFTs I reviewed and figured I would create posts on my website in case it interested anyone looking for inspirations on which artists to support or which collections to keep an eye out for.

I am no expert, my only tools are my appreciation of art, my feelings and emotions, my way with words and a true desire to spread positivity in a world where, for the majority, everything is hidden behind by a big cloud of uncertainty.

May this initiative serve its humble purpose and bring support or help or positivity in any way to anyone reading it and to the artists featured in my articles. 🙏

#10 Spaceage

Created by artist Caroline Ranere

NFTs:
https://opensea.io/collection/redbetty
https://opensea.io/collection/lovecaroline
https://opensea.io/collection/ladypops

What I see

This image first inspires equilibrium, rectitude and devotion. A solid metallic structure that invites us underground. We penetrate a temple where devotees, solemnly walking around with arms crossed behind their straight backs, inside their straitjackets, worship the great architect who designed all this. We go down a wide-open rectangular rabbit hole where the only unbalanced thing not in line with patterns besides the unreachable sky is the living being who was carefully selected to live there, secluded, hypnotized by the multitude of colored lights dancing inside his/her helmet (a highly advanced electronic device programmed to provide he/she who wears it just enough oxygen to barely live, devoid of all emotion). Until time comes when the adorers have to walk down the stairs. They don’t know they are walking into an oven, blinded by the lights they can’t see the distortion in the atmosphere around them emanating from the heat down there. And they can’t sense the heat, how could they? Their straitjacket is made out of foil which repels heat and their big silicon boots and garments were designed for the exact same purpose. Their fate is sealed. In the next few minutes, there will remain only a pile of dust inside a triangular urn on the wall.

What I feel

I feel transported into another universe. I feel moved by the beauty of the distant starry sky and the sunset. I feel admiration for devotion towards higher principles and I feel sadness for he/she who gives up freewill in the name of dictated commandments. And I also feel pity because there is no possibility for human connection inside this environment. The inhabitants of this planet are distracted from their young age until the day they die. There is no proximity between people in this universe, only empty space. It really is a space age.

Conclusion

Caroline Ranere has the ability to create unique parallel universes. Whether it be with her lovely Red Betty, dancer, lover, spy NFT collection, which I warmly invite you to visit on OpenSea, or with other artworks where shapes, patterns and colors follow her set of rules, she is in control. I am grateful that you shared your artwork with me Caroline, even more so that you accepted to share your “Bet on Betty” promotional artwork with me as an NFT. (What can I say, I love marathons!) 🙏✌️

What I see

Torn by the fact that her lover decided to leave and conquer other planets she appears to almost exclusively be touched by the shades of blue emanating from the whole spectrum of colors gushing from what others would call a giant leap for Humanity. She is obviously feeling blue, so much so that, out of her various shades of grey, the only color rolling on her cheek is blue. Although he is waiving from afar, seemingly proud of his accomplishments in his nifty astronaut apparel, she is not looking at him, she is looking away, adding to the sentiment of separation between them.

What I feel

I feel sadness first because she is in the foreground. She is us, we see the world from her point of view. Then, once we take a step back, we are able to view the scene as a spectator and find that there is beauty in all the colors, we find joy and pride in this flowing rainbow. Nevertheless, in the end, these radiant shades of life appear to lead to another grey entity. That new planet is not brighter, it is only different. Only the journey was colorful. Huh… And I’m back to sadness… Now I’m the one looking away at these shiny diamonds millions of miles away… Crying a river.

Conclusion

What a beautiful journey! Emotions and feelings are what makes us feel alive. They are what makes us human! 🙏✌️
