Willow's paintings are as colorful and eclectic as her life journey. In her portfolio you will find many images that reflect the sacredness of the earth, the divine feminine, and the spirit realms. She has utilized geometric patterns, energy flows, and the transparencies to invoke a sense of the sacred. Archetypal images rooted in the time of the goddess culture and ethnic designs from numerous cultures call forth the ancient ways. The luminescence, fluidity and multidimensionality apparent in her work transport the viewer into more subtle realms of experience.  She is the creator of the immensely popular Tarot of Transformation, along with her co-author Jasmin Cori, and she utilizes the deck in her psychic readings. Willow has many gift items made from her images, which may include the textural elements of handmade paper collage and exotic yarns. Willow Arlenea's dynamic visionary paintings have evolved to incorporate a unique blend of artistic influences. During her student years her first influences were Realism, Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, and Art Nouveau. She was deeply moved by the energy and passion of Van Gogh's paintings, delighted by Marc Chagal's magical realms and exotic distortions, and enticed by Gauguin's rich colors and dark skinned figures. Her eye soon turned to "primitive" art. She felt drawn to the decorative patterning and mystical symbolism found in Native American, African and Aborigional art, which worked their way into her paintings. A deep resonance with Islamic, Egyptian and Afghani styles also emerged. Willow's work continues to evolve. For her, creating a reality on canvas is a dance of polarities. Hard edges balance with a loose expressive style. Lights and darks, flow and pattering, complementary colors, texture and negative space all come into harmony in her work, creating inspiring symphonies of light.

Join Me as I talk to Tommie Brewster who is an Ambassador for Act Against Injustice which is a UK government registered charity http://www.act-againstinjustice.org/ Act Against Injustice really takes up the fight and tries to bring more awareness of this world problem.  The Trafficking of children now accounts for more money made illegally in the world than than the sale of drugs. We are working also to build Safehouses in Brazil, Nepal and South Africa plus helping to alleviate abuse of children in the UK and the US. Tommie Brewster - the soulful voice of Blues Tommie began her musical life before the age of 4, playing piano and later several other instruments.  She graduated from the Royal Academy of Music in London where she had begun a life long love affair with the works of Frederic Chopin! However, musical influences at home were many- from jazz to ragtime, blues to rock, reggae to swing - and it was the blues that spoke loudest to Tommie's heart and soul. It was her dream to write, perform, arrange, record and produce her own distinctive music and this has now been achieved. All musicians absorb so many influences, but Tommie does not knowingly imitate, replicate or emulate anyone - Tommie's music in many different styles - just is what it is.

Overview of our 11:11:11 Venus Transmission: Through our ablities in consciousness projection, we are gathering at the Ascension Seat at the Earth Core, building an ascending vortex of energy, and then invoking the full action of Solar Grid’s pulsations of love throughout the entire planet. We  invoke the 11:11:11 ascension codes into full activation, from the 12 primary helixes of the Golden Solar Discs around the planet. All focus is upon our inner Sun Presence, connecting into and out of our Sun Center while unifying all continents, oceans and planetary energy into our Group Merkaba and bringing all lifestreams with us as we spiral up and through the Rainbow Bridge. We are unifying all of our earth body chakras into one spherical vortex field while receiving the complete activation of our 5th dimensional axiatonal system, including the greater opening of our Alpha and Omega energy portals, enabling real time dimensional passage. This catalyzes an internal pole shift with potential for the nervous system to be recalibrated to the 5th dimensional frequency of the Earth and enabling us to perceive beyond our electromagnetic forms. We therefore integrate a multidimensional consciousness that can traverse both time-space and space-time. Once we build the Ascension Merkaba at the Earth core and receive all of the key codes and light body activations… we finally travel up through the portal and emerge through to Lake Titicaca and its Solar Disc… our Group Body being held within a cohered field of Divine Love through the magnetic pull of the orbit of Venus.

Sybil on working with THE LAST VEGAS: “Working with Chad and THE LAST VEGAS, who are Hot, Sexy and Rock, on “The Other Side” music video was the ultimate in class act professionalism.  I’d rather be in hell with TLV, than in heaven with Mother Teresa. Mick Jagger once said, “It’s all right letting yourself go, as long as you can get yourself back!” With THE LAST VEGAS, I went to The Other Side; a good thing never ends!”  

Janet Elaine Smith first got "hooked" on writing when she wrote the experiences she and her family had gone through when they were missionaries in Venezuela. She turned her attention to creating fun, well-researched fiction books, but in order to add some money to the table and keep at her beloved craft, she explored the field of magazine writing, which she has actively done for over 25 years. She has over 2,000 magazine articles to her credit, but her dream came true with the publication of Dunnottar, her first book, in June 2000. Now she has 14 novels and 2 non-fiction books to her credit, and has, as she says "at least 120 more written--in my head." She promises that you will laugh a little, cry a little and always have a happily-ever-after ending in every single Janet Elaine Smith novel.Visit her website at http://janetesmithstarbooks.tripod.com/

  About Kevin~ In his own words Some of you have known of me and my culinary interests for some time, but others are just recently discovering it - and curious to learn more about my culinary background, as well as my artistic history - so here it is, in a nutshell. I have worked the last 5 yrs in New Orleans in some of the top restaurants in the country. But grew bored with their stifling my creativity ("that's not traditional New Orleans food - We like to support our history here") Little did they know, they were creating as monster - their own worst enemy. Now Chef Kevin Smith has started building the Global Culinary Arts Empire. with the objective of creating approachable - world class cuisine.  Due to contracts and confidentiality agreements - I am not allowed to say who I worked for - but let's just say some one name restaurants located on prestigious St Charles Avenue. I have worked with Caribbean, French, Italian, Asian, Creole, Cajun, American, and Bistro style cuisine - now melding it into my own signature style - with my own name Creole'politan. New Orleans is famous for it's food - as it is it's jazz music. Any of you have ever been there know the true great musicians get to the point they are too "evolved" and "polished" to be accepted there - so they go to a bigger pond (usually doing regular gigs in New York, Paris, Chicago, or elsewhere in Europe). This is what has happened to my food - and why I am now on my own. 

Sharita Star, Psychic of the Planets, Astrologer and Numerologist Sharita is a messenger for the energies and patterns our celestial bodies communicate to us through their wisdom. A constant student of the mighty planets above, Sharita taps into an undeniable knowledge that brings a deeper understanding of how we all can optimally live here below on earth. I developed the uncanny ability to Lexigram just before 9/11, and the mysteries they have since revealed to me are true gifts to us all in their insights, and ultimately shed further light into our amazing usage of language.   Her new Book will be our topic.. It's All in the Name explains the concept of Lexigrams and the uncanny magic they can unfold for self-knowledge. The author begins by introducing simple words and taking the reader on a journey that shows how much we can find the truth we are searching for is contained within the words we use every day. After offering a few rules to guide the Lexigram process (and suggesting times to break those rules), she explains the interconnections among Lexigrams, astrology, and numerology. Sharita Star goes on to show how many of the Lexigrams that can be derived from names and titles relate to the very astrological and numerical guidance that governs them, providing historical evidence to show how this dynamic works. To do so, she offers references to zodiacal Sun signs and the Chaldean understanding of numerology. Moreover, Sharita provides numerous case studies of well-know individuals, past and present. It's All in the Name is a valuable tool for exploring the profound inner meanings of names and everyday words and for deepening one's intuitive capacity.

    Yossarian Slept Here: When Joseph Heller Was Dad, the Apthorp Was Home and Life Was a Catch-22 Erica Heller, a former advertising copywriter, is a published novelist, memoirist and journalist. Her father was the author Joseph Heller, who wrote Catch-22, among other books, so she grew up with a healthy dose of irony and black humor. Appropriately, she lives in New York City. Her book, Yossarian Slept Here, When Joseph Heller Was Dad, the Apthorp Was Home, and Life was a Catch-22, was recently published by Simon & Schuster. Oh, and as a special bonus, we are given, in the final pages of the book, Ms. Heller’s grandmother’s secret recipe for pot roast, which is very much appreciated, and which her then-divorced father once offered her $10,000 to reveal to him. That she chose to withhold the recipe from him out of loyalty to her mother says much about Ms. Heller

**Join Me as I get to talk to Friend /Artist about her latest adventurers. Xany Rudoff is a Los Angeles-based acclaimed artist who has also parlayed her talents in acting, interior design and wardrobe styling. Born in Pasadena, CA to an artist mother and art historian father, Rudoff moved with her family to the desert expanse of Apple Valley, CA, a site that would be crucial for her artistic development. In the wide, empty nothingness of the desert landscape, there were no limitations to Rudoff’s imagining, and upon returning to Los Angeles proper to get her B.A. in fine arts at the University of California, Los Angeles, she was able to see the city and the art world from the outside. This sort of perspective is what has driven her to remain independent, outside of the gallery system, and to advocate for artists’ right to receive royalties for the resale of their works. Xany Says ....   My latest series of work combines these passions together by taking the albums I grew up listening to and the rock stars I idolized and transforming them into modern day Icons - lusterized in gold and lacquer echoing the same techniques that have been used by artists for centuries throughout the Byzantine and Renaissance era. These paintings take the familiar and transcend into the iconic, an exultant and exuberant example of modern-day devotion. Music and art are my religion and my release."  Xany Rudoff Visionaire Extraordinaire and a Xandinista Forever! My dream, my passion is for all artists to unite and reclaim their just due- Viva la Revolution, baby Her art appears in the collections of many notable collectors including actors Benicio Del Toro and Johnny Depp, director David Lynch, musician Albert Hammond Jr, iconic designer Peter Saville, Creation Records founder Alan McGee, pop singer Pink, The Libertine's Carl Barat, and Bauhaus’s David J, among many others.

~Celebrating 25 years In Sonoma there is a Legendary Festival that takes place, The B.R. Cohn Fall Music Festival. It’s hard to believe we’ve been doing this for 25 years now,” reflects Bruce Cohn, sitting in his office on the winery grounds, recalling the early days of the B.R.

John Lennon called himself a working class hero. George Harrison was a working class mystic. Born in Liverpool as the son of a bus conductor and a shop assistant, for the first six years of his life he lived in a house with no indoor bathroom. This book gives an honest, in-depth view of Harrison’s personal journey— from his blue-collar childhood to his role as a world-famous spiritual icon. Author Gary Tillery’s approach is warmly human and free of the fawning but insolent tone of most rock biographers. He frankly discusses the role drugs played in leading Harrison to mystical insight but emphasizes that he soon renounced psychedelics as a means to the spiritual path. It was with conscious commitment that Harrison journeyed to India, studied sitar with Ravi Shankar, practiced yoga, learned meditation from the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, and became a devotee of Hinduism. George worked hard to subdue his own ego and to understand the truth beyond appearances. He preferred to keep a low profile, but his empathy for suffering people led him to spearhead the first charitable rock-and-roll super event. And despite his wealth and fame, he was always delighted to slip on overalls and perform manual labor on his grounds. At ease with holy men discussing the Upanishads and the Bhagavad Gita, he was ever the bloke from Liverpool whose father drove a bus, whose brothers were tradesmen, and who had worked himself as an apprentice electrician until the day destiny called. Tillery’s engaging narrative depicts Harrison as a sincere seeker who acted out of genuine care for humanity and used his celebrity to be of service in the world. Fans of all generations will treasure this book for the inspiring portrayal it gives of their beloved “quiet” Beatle.

Joe Paulson is on a mission. He wants his audience to walk away from his shows thinking, “That song just expressed how I’ve always felt.” An Indianapolis native, Paulson first began ticklin’ the ivories at the tender age of 6.  It wasn’t until he was 18 years old and on the cusp of enrolling at Taylor University in Upland, Indiana that he started delivering his soulful, introspective melodies as piano pop-rock artist. In the fall of 2007, he released The Neverending EP, a collection of seven piano driven ballads showcasing his songwriting virtuosity. Shortly after that release, he began touring at venues and festivals in countless cities all over Indiana. Paulson brings in all aspects of his life into his writing.  As you listen to one of his songs, you might hear his morning run, or him sitting down to read the newspaper, or maybe the clicks of his keyboard at work, but what ever you hear will be a part of his life. One of the songs that best encompasses this message as a whole is “Expectations”, in which Paulson sings “Life lacks consistency; change always gets the best of me, so why do we always give in”. While never having studied music as a subject, Paulson is definitely a novice of music. With every artist he listens to, he gains knowledge.  While Paulson's music is rich in technicality and showmanship, the lyrics are crafted specifically for the sake of expressing the most profound aspects of life in a manner that connects with the listener. Music, to him, is a passion, and he intends on expressing it to the fullest. His debut, full-length album, This Fine Evening is now available on iTunes and Amazon.

Dressed in the teenage uniform of skinny jeans, t-shirts, and black Converse, Amanda Lamb may seem ordinary, but looks can be deceiving. The Southern California native’s energetic smile exudes the playfulness of youth, but when you dig a little deeper, you find an old soul.  On her debut album Highwire, released on November 5, 2010, 16 year-old Amanda manages to walk the line between shimmering pop and heartfelt introspection with a sophistication beyond her years. “Every song on my album was chosen as an expression of a part of my life – happy, sad, hopeful, disappointing, fun, difficult, and everything in between,” explains Amanda. “I chose the title Highwire as a nod to the track ‘The Life of An Aerialist.’ I feel it’s the most autobiographical song on the album, because it embodies fragility as well as strength.” Singing in choirs since age 5 and playing the piano from the age of 6, Amanda began to find her own voice around the age of 12. She began formal vocal training, becoming her school choir’s most enthusiastic soloist, and by age 14, she had written her first song. Shortly after, she took on more intense training with renowned vocal coach Lis Lewis (P!nk, Rihanna), seeking to perfect not only her technical skill but her ability to express real feelings in her music. A fan of artists like Adam Lambert and Owl City, Amanda loves catchy melodies, real drums, and over-the-top synth lines. At the core, though, the foundation for every song is the lyrics, and she embraces pop while infusing her songs with genuine emotion (“Infinity”) and unexpected metaphors “The Life of An Aerialist” At times poignant, at times tongue-in-cheek, Amanda Lamb captures the honest questions, clever insights and wistful dreams of a young woman coming into her own.

  Andi Starr is a classically trained pianist who picked up a $100 guitar after college and approached it much like she would a piano. Over a decade and six albums later, the resulting music reflects not only the ambiance and dynamics of her classical upbringing but has garnered comparisons between The Cranberries, early Jewel, and Tori Amos. As a traveler of the inner world, Starr’s particular gift is in turning difficult subject matter into heartfelt, sometimes haunting, and always beautiful compositions. Culturespill Magazine states: “Andi Starr hits the right notes: the notes that hurt, the notes that know you, the notes that make you meet yourself.”    The World Will Follow will be Starr’s sixth album (and third studio release). In the early production phase, Starr sat down with her long-time collaborator and co-producer, S. Asher Sund, to talk about the vision. Wanting to deconstruct the “girl and her guitar” singer/songwriter image, the idea was to introduce the new, “electric” Starr, and especially to recover some lost sounds and influences from her childhood, particularly from bands like The Cure and Depeche Mode. With co-production help from Jesse Seibenberg (of Supertramp) and Jordan Richter (Sixpence None the Richer, Jars of Clay), it is safe to say that Starr has obtained the sound she was looking for. The first single, “Little Bird,” has sat at the top of the ReverbNation charts for California and continues to gain momentum with help from the music video.
