The Dancing Portal: The Spirit of Dance

Look through the Shining Veil
of
The Dancing Portal...

And you will see Victoria's Dancers
*
They dance for you..and for me...
When they appear...my world is often shining in new directions..
and it is time to fly..
*
If you are feeling called to fly lately..
Feel welcome to take one of my dancers with you....
she will lead you in the Portal
to Dance
Within your new Dreams of Creation..

Every day..must have music and dancing..
It is the Poetry of Life


The Dance of your Life is within you..
it is natural and intuitive and beautiful..
it is your dance..
shine
don't ever stop..
and don't ever be afraid
your path is shining with Magic always!

The Dancers come into my life every now and then..
divine timing..
and they usually are very symbolic when they show up
*
This painting came this summer..
and afterwards I realised
I had painted..
My Nonna, My Mother..and Me.
What a beautiful surprise!

My Nonna a powerful magical incredible lady..
( in the afterworld now),
the one leading on stage..
she began the dance..

and my Beautiful Mother..
the one sitting , getting her white costume gloves on
and me in the middle, watching over  her..
and waiting for her to join us.

Three Generations having a Symbolic Dance Together..
A Powerful Moment

The Dance of Life is happening right now..
Embrace it and fly..

Celebrate  those Special Ones in your life
and the Wisdom they Carry
and the Dance they have shared with you
It is a Gift.


The Magic of the dance.
touches our life
whether we know it or not at the time..
and some of the beautiful steps
invoke their spirit into our path!
*
I thank my Nonna and My Mother for the Beauty they have sparkled
into my world..my life..and into My Dance!
And also the Wisdom to Know my Own Dance!!
and to dance it Powerfully..and Embody it Fully..
*
SHINE ON!

May the Spirit of Dance be with you..
and may the Dancers greet you
when you most need to remember
the Spark on your Path
and wherever it is leading you to fly.

The Dance within you
will Guide you Always..
*
Victoria Pettella

Enchanting the Invisible

See you in the portal..

Ohhhhhhhhh! I am speechless! Kiki, this is so very beautiful - I love your painting and the story that it tells. Mesmerising...you are my true inspiration x

Carrie W Martinez said...

I have to admit, you are my favorite blogger! Everything from your paintings to your photo styling--love all of it!! The details and accessories truly accentuate your amazing talent as an artist and writer. Thanks for creating such a creative oasis in blogland. I can't help but stop by for a visit to gather inspiration and peace (and some decorating ideas!).

Its funny the way our loved ones make it into our paintings, oftentimes unexpectedly. Our essence survives even beyond our death, proving that love is immortal...

Lori Saul said...

Thank you for sharing this beautiful painting so full of personal strength and sybolism to you. Dance has always been a big part of my life as well- it is an expression unlike any other. It can bring ecstacy and insight to our innermost feelings. Love the delicacy and use of color in this most special art piece Kiki. Have a great weekend!

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

This is jaw dropping GORGEOUS. I'm so in awe of your talent, and if that weren't enough, your story. The generational symbolism points out the thought you put into this post. Seeing this through its own reflection really makes it "shine." This is one powerful and awesome IA Challenge entry.

Robin Norgren said...

"every day must have music and dancing..." ABSOLUTELY. The women are so elegant and your nana leading the dance..well is SO beautiful.

Incipient Wings said...

this is lovely!
thank you:)

Stephanie Mealor Corder said...

My computer has been so undependable lately, I wasn't even able to comment on the IA entries this week. I'm just popping in for a quick catch up on my favorite blogs (which of course your is one of :))
And what a treat to have a new Victoria piece plus a poem- food for the soul!
I love the symbolism in this one, it may well be my favorite yet!
Big shiny hugs for you!
Stephanie
