I took these photos few months ago while in a hike over the hills here in California, it was an amazing view!
The color of the sky, the clouds, the atmosphere it was just so beautiful and peaceful!
I am glad I was able to capture the moment!

Hello everyone,
this is not one of my usual post but is about “Health” and “Natural Remedies” I feel that this is something I like to share with all of you, especially right now that is Winter Season it’s easy to get sick, weather change, cold temperatures, snow, rain, cold wind, humidity and so on…we need to be wise and protected because cold and flu is easy to catch and is not fun.
I have to say that I am a strong believer of the power of Nature not just in my Art but in everything I do and I use natural homemade remedies. I have seen great results most of the time.
What I am going to share is the recipe I used to cure my “Cold” when I got sick around New Years Eve.
My symptoms were a cold associated with sore throat, cough, loss of voice, muscle aches.
This special and precious natural mixture did wander for me and is known as the “Turmeric Golden Honey” is claimed to be one of the strongest natural antibiotic. When you take these two ingredients together it strengthens your “Immune System” and is as well a great anti inflammatory.
The mixture is composed of Turmeric and Raw organic Honey. Turmeric is a root part of the Ginger family cultivated in India and Asia, when dry is a powder having an intense yellow color used as spice for cooking, can be found in every food market, actually is really good and add a unique and exotic taste to your food giving you lots of great health benefits. (I suggest you to Google health benefits of Turmeric).
The Turmeric yellow color is very pigmented and maybe you remember one of my previous post where I explain how I experimented Watercolor painting with Turmeric .

Now let’s get the “Turmeric Golden Honey” recipe:
Ingredients are:
Preparation of the mixture:
Add 1 tbsp. of Turmeric in 3.5 oz. (100 grams) of raw organic honey, mix very well with a wooden spoon and place the Golden Honey mixture in a glass jar.
If you want to make more double the dose and store it at room temperature.
How to Use:
Take upon the first symptoms of colds and flu:
Day 1 – Take ½ tsp. every hour during the day.
Day 2 – Take ½ tsp. every two hours during the day.
Day 3 – Take ½ tsp. three times a day.
The Golden Honey mixture should stay in the mouth until dissolved.
The cold usually passes after three days, in mild cases, but sometimes takes longer for the body to recover.
I took this for one week and kept taking ½ tsp. once a day for few more days when I was feeling better until the cold was gone just to keep my immune system strong. Thanks to this homemade mix you can be able to prevent cold without taking any drugs and prescriptions and use it as alternative.
Use it also to boost the Immune System Take ½ tsp once every couple of days as needed.
I remind you strongly that if you suffer of any medical condition and taking any medications please consult your doctor before trying this natural alternative as it may have adverse effects on some individuals.

Crystals
translucent surface
of an inner energy
powerful light
radiating rays of depth
in the history of nature
sun reflection and donation
of universal love
for the humanity to hold
a cosmic revelation
sometimes unknown
like puzzle pieces to find
within our soul
awareness will come
with perception and feelings
love is power
light will shine

Today I like to reblog this post I wrote time ago and I hope that you enjoy it! And to all the Artists that love to paint I hope that you are inspired to try out this because it was a nice fun for me with a lovely outcome!

NATURE it is so precious!
Today I will share how I painted those beautiful flowers using some of the most vibrant and pigmented colors found in “Nature”. I always like to experiment new ways to use colors. This time I wasn’t thinking to paint anything, I had no plan and no preparation it was late evening, but…when creativity strike you can’t miss the moment!
Few days ago I got some amazing “Dragon fruit” or also known as “Pitaya” it is a delicious and refreshing Tropical fruit that grows on several Cactus species and has great Health Benefits
This fruit has beautiful colors on the outside skin, and rich magenta pigments inside or white.

The juice is a strong dye and it is perfect for painting, I used my 140 lb watercolor paper sketch book
and Aqua flo water filled brushes.

Over the Hills
Looking over the hills
I lose my sight in the beautiful horizon
the immensity of Mother’s nature
that I cannot hold
brings me back and lost
in memories of beautiful places
so dear and
so far away
called home.

Deep Water
Surrounded by the blue deepest water. The reflections of floating emotions, loaded the mind and body in a fearless state. Tranquillity and silence flying through the broken branches of a life experience, were glowing under the warm sunlight. Suddenly warm rain drops of happiness joined the deep water becoming one.

PEACE
a precious word I have been thought
from the day I was born
a word made of many words
a word made of many colors
a word made of many thoughts
a word to be shared
a word that rhyme with love
and acceptance
find harmony inside yourself
to walk peacefully during your life path
with enlightenment
love yourself to love one another
open your mind to freedom
and maintain it possible in this world.
