---

My home is in the depths of Connemara where the sun sets on the mountains behind me and I gaze out, over bogland hills, to the soft evening light catching the mountainsides across the valley. There are only about 300 folk living in the valley. Two Connemara ponies munch away in the field opposite our house, and they're often joined by a couple of rather bold and raucous donkeys. I'm not necessarily a landscape painter, but the tranquility and beauty of my studio surroundings gives me the creative space and inspiration to paint.

My philosophy simply put, is that I concentrate on capturing the living energy of my subject, working on creating a sense of freedom within constraint. I am conscious of the masks of protection and the layers of learning that people develop and build up through their lives, learning how to disguise their true selves and how to live comfortably with their masks and layers. Scratch the surface, delve deeper into ourselves, and we find we all have so much more inside of us than the world sees. Creatively, nothing excites me more than to look closely at a painting and be able to identify the layers of colour which have been laid down to build up the final picture.

So whether I am working on an abstract, or a contemporary horse painting, even a flower arrangement, the painting is built up with layers of mostly pure colour, sometimes mixing on the canvas and other times sitting next to each other to create a vibrancy in their pairing.

Colour, a sense of energy, and vibrancy are all very important to me.

Guest Biography:

Ginger Garner MPT, ATC - is an educator in medical therapeutic yoga and a physical therapist in integrative rehabilitation. Her fields of focus include orthopaedics, chronic pain, and women’s health.  Ginger is an activist for improving health care in America and reaches her audience through her popular columns, Breathing In This Life, Fit and Fearless Birth on Modern Mom, Yang-Sheng Magazine, Caring Economy, and her publications in medical therapeutic yoga.

Ginger has written more than 30 programs and a 4 volume text standardizing the use of yoga in integrative medicine and rehabilitation through her program Professional Yoga Therapy. Her undergraduate to post-graduate & medical continuing education programs were a first in healthcare when she founded the program in 2001.  Her most recent project is developing the first US based distance education program in medical therapeutic yoga (2010-2012) now offered in partnership with the National Athletic Trainers’ Association and other national organizations. Ginger credits her work in multiple settings, such as outpatient orthopaedics, women’s health, inpatient, wound care, neuromuscular, cardiopulmonary, obstetric therapies, home health, as well as her studies and performance in music and sound, with developing her methodology in using yoga as medicine.

Founder of Professional Yoga Therapy – A Grassroots Movement in Evidence Based Yoga Education to Improve Health Care In America

During her graduate studies in physical therapy and public health at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, almost 20 years ago, Ginger developed her original mission for the first education program in medical yoga, out of what she perceived as a great disconnect in American health care.  Professional Yoga Therapy (PYT) was born out of the vision to see eastern and western medicine yoked to offer more comprehensive health care for both the healthy and complex American patient. Today, PYT offers a working model for educational standards in medical yoga education and integrative health care delivery in the US.

Ginger has trained hundreds of medical professionals across North America over the last decade in using yoga and Pilates in Complementary and Alternative Medicine; while at the same time working to raise awareness and funds for improving women’s health.  As a result, graduates from the PYT program have created or taken jobs as integrative rehabilitation supervisors in hospital systems, clinics, and non-traditional settings in nursing, medicine, as well as therapy.

Guest Biography:

Robert R. Hieronimus, Ph.D. has been an acknowledged pioneer in the "New Paradigm" movement for over 40 years. After traveling with numerous rock and roll bands in the 1960s to share information about esoterica and design posters and album covers, Bob began a long career as a muralist and painter. His highly acclaimed occult and symbolic artcars and murals include the 2,700 square foot prophetic "Apocalypse" at the Johns Hopkins University, which led to Dr. Bob being called "one of this country's best muralists" (Forecast Magazine). Art historian and critic Alan Barnet noted, "Hieronimus has a talent for winning the cooperation of the establishment while he lives and works in the counter-culture."

Dr. Bob’s most famous Artcar, the Volkswagen bus “Light” (better known as “the Woodstock bus”), was photographed by the Associated Press and Rolling Stone at the original 1969 Woodstock, and is still seen today regularly reprinted in media all over the world. A diecast model of Hieronimus’s painted Woodstock bus will be produced by Sunstar Diecast in 2009 in recognition of Woodstock’s 40th anniversary.

In 1969 Bob founded AUM, the first state approved school of esoteric studies in the country which granted certificates in the occult sciences, mystic arts and religious metaphysics. PBS documented his leadership and contributions in 1971 with the feature, "The Artist of Savitria" produced by Maryland Public Television and seen nationwide.

Dr. Bob received his Ph.D. from Saybrook Graduate School in 1981 for the doctoral thesis, An Historic Analysis of the Reverse of the American Great Seal and Its Relationship to the Ideology of Humanistic Psychology. His research on the Great Seal has been used in the speeches, literature, and libraries of the White House (1976, 1982), the State Department (1978), and the Department of Interior (1982). His Independence Hall speech on the Great Seal's bicentennial was published in the Congressional Record (1983, 1984), and his research was shared in a personal meeting with the late Egyptian President Anwar El-Sadat. Together with his wife, Zohara, Dr. Bob lobbied the House and Senate on the Great Seal Act (1982-1986). Inner Traditions published a popular version of Dr. Bob's doctoral thesis in 1989, entitled America's Secret Destiny: Spiritual Vision and the Founding of a Nation (which is now available exclusively from the Hieronimus & Co. Gift Shop). This book was revised and expanded in 2006 under the title Founding Fathers, Secret Societies: Freemasons, Illuminati, Rosicrucians and the Decoding of the Great Seal. As a result of this book, Dr. Bob was featured on documentaries on the National Geographic, Discovery and History Channels. “Secrets of the Dollar Bill” has been repeated dozens of times on the History Channel. Founding Fathers, Secret Societies has been translated into German, French, Russian, and Spanish.

In 2006, Dr. Bob painted his first Artcar in 20 years, transforming his Mercedes 300 SD into the Biodiesel-fueled “Founding Fathers Artcar” – the only Biodiesel Artcar in the state of Maryland and a popular feature in regional parades. In 2008, this car was transformed and repainted to be called the “We the People.”

In 2008, New Page Books released his latest book, United Symbolism of America: Deciphering Hidden Meanings in America's Most Familiar Art, Architecture and Logos, a page-turning account of how the Statue of Liberty, the Liberty Bell, the flag, the eagle, the Great Seal, and Washington DC became American icons. Each is examined from a humanistic psychological point of view with countless interpretations based on world cultures, religions, secret societies, archetypes and popular usage. Dr. Bob also makes a strong defense against the burgeoning anti-American mythology spun from dreamed-up conspiracies about our Founding Fathers and their symbols, based on a serious lack of education. This work was turned into a 2-hour special on the Discovery Channel called “Secret America,” a special on the History Channel called “Secrets of the Founding Fathers,” and was featured in a segment on Canada’s Vision TV called “Occult Architecture: Washington DC.”

Dr. Bob has been a frequent guest on radio and television talk shows across the country since 1967 sharing his research in metaphysical symbolism, the founding fathers, America's Great Seal, UFOs and the paranormal, and even synchronistic methods for picking winning lottery numbers. Dr. Bob's examination of numerology systems from dozens of cultures also resulted in two best sellers: How to Pick Your Personal Winning Lottery Numbers (1985, Crown), and Your Personal Winning Lottery Numbers (1986, Warner).

In January 1988 he launched 21st Century Radio, first on WFBR in Baltimore, then on over 100 stations nationwide on the American Radio Network and currently on WCBM 680 in Baltimore Sunday nights 8-10 PM Eastern. Dr. Bob's easy-going blend of humor and well-read background, cause most of the leading edge authorities he interviews to agree that 21st Century Radio is the best forum to present their unusual findings or opinions. Passionate about mythology and how it can provide for a special meaning in life, Dr. Bob seasons his programming with visits from cultural heroes and icons who help add humor and inspiration to the sometimes discouraging news of the future. He has made a special study of the Beatles’ animated classic film, “Yellow Submarine” which successfully blended mind-bending art design with archetypal symbology. In 2002, he published Inside the Yellow Submarine: The Making of the Beatles Animated Classic, which has been called “an indispensable companion to the movie.” (Animation World Magazine)

In 1990 Dr. Bob and Zoh incorporated Hieronimus & Co., Inc. to serve as a media research service, providing story and guest ideas and materials to television, newspapers and radio worldwide. Their work has been featured on ABC World News Tonight, ABC Radio, ABCNews.com, CNN, C-SPAN, PBS, The Larry King Show, Strange Universe, and in dozens of leading publications like The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, The New York Times Magazine, The Chicago Tribune, The Boston Globe, The San Francisco Chronicle, The Dallas Morning News, The Denver Post, The New York Post, and The Baltimore Sun.

BIO FROM: http://www.earthrainbownetwork.com/jean.htm

Jean Hudon - He was born in Quebec City on the 19th of June 1952, and lived there up to 1979. After completing his education, he became a self-taught musician, playing electric bass in many bands, as well as composing songs and lyrics in a progressive rock band called Maelstrom which recorded an album and played at major venues. In 1979, after a 10 year musical career interspersed with various jobs, he moved to a rural community in the Saguenay area where he built a comfortable three-storied house, and learned organic gardening. He also took part in the creation of an intentional community called Les Plateaux Commun'o'Terre on their 540 acres communally-owned land, home today (2010) to 29 adults and 11 children living in 17 individually-owned homes.

In 1981, he became a social activist when he joined a local environmental group which organized the first demonstration in Quebec against the scourge of acid rains. In 1982, he set up the Quebec branch of a program called Planetary Initiative for the World We Choose. More than 50 Exploration Groups were formed all across Quebec to study documents on various problems facing humanity, and discuss ideas to solve them. With 20 delegates from Quebec, he participated to a Planetary Congress in Toronto which resulted in a final document later presented to the U.N.

At the end of 1983, in view of the growing threat of a nuclear holocaust, he launched a global initiative to help increase public awareness and commitment to defuse the crisis. Called Peace Bomb, this 5 minute globally synchronized moment of prayer/meditation was widely publicized and observed in numerous countries on the 21st of December 1983. A weekly meditation called Love Chain was then launched to help sustain the momentum for peace and kept going over many years.

In 1985, he was invited to the founding meeting of a group called the World Federation for Peace whose motto was The Earth is my Home and Humanity my Family. His contribution was to design and publish in French and English a Guiding Manual for a New World presenting various perspectives on the emerging new paradigm as a way to foster a transformation process within participating individuals.

In 1986, he was inspired to write a book called The Immortal Child whose purpose was to present to a vast audience the concept of our planet as one single global entity, also known as the Gaia Hypothesis. This book published in English, French, Japanese and Portuguese led to 2 years of intense work to promote the idea of an Earth Concert which finally took place on December 31st, 1989 through 20 concerts held in 15 different countries. Hundreds of people were directly involved in organizing these events and a major heightening of awareness ensued as to the plight of our endangered planet.

In 1990, he planted 40,000 tree seedlings during a 6 week period in summer. He then made the transition towards becoming a professional translator on a full time basis and has so far translated over 30 books. In addition, he regularly wrote and mailed out around the world various documents outlining his visions as a way to foster change and action on key issues of peace, environment and global governance.

In 1993, he joined the Green Party of Quebec as an elected member of the National Executive Committee. After 2 years of efforts to promote ideas of sustainability, decentralization, participatory democracy and social justice, he jumped on the Parti Québécois bandwagon, 6 months before the provincial election, with the hope of increasing the exposure of its leaders and members to the ideas mentioned above. Following this, he was hired to write the green platform of the Parti Québécois and produce a video on sustainable development featuring Mr Jacques Parizeau, former prime minister of Quebec.

On November 29, 1996, he decided to re-activate the Earth Concert worldwide network in order to create an unifying global event to mark the beginning of the new millenium. He has co-founded the Earth Rainbow Network in February 1997 for that purpose. Over time, this network evolved and his focus shifted towards sharing information, visions and feedbacks on a broad range of subjects as a way to expand and deepen global awareness and the sense of forming a global spiritual community gradually empowering itself to contribute in shaping the future of this world. He has since networked over 50,000 pages (US letter format) of material (all archived on this site) to a thriving global community of over 3200 English subscribers in more than 50 countries.

He has also co-created the Global Meditation Focus Group in April 2000 to regularly issue Meditation Focuses designed to focalize the attention and healing energies of a growing number of meditators around the world onto situations and crises in need of peaceful resolution and spiritual assistance. It has also become in the past few years a means through which thousands of people around the world are regularly joining in meditation to foster humanity's spiritual awakening and increase their own sense of Oneness with All That Is.

Guest Biography:

Shelley Yates lives in Nova Scotia, Canada, and has not only died and come back, but had the wonderful good fortune to come back with a message of hope and love for our earth and its inhabitants. Shelley first learned how to apply her new knowledge from beyond to bring her son back from death in an unprecedented display, using the power of faith, love and the manipulation of personal human energy. Her son returned whole and happy. She was told "what you did for a dying boy with a small group of people you can do for a dying planet with a large group." She shares her story of miracles and her knowledge of human energy potential with all that are willing to listen. Her final outcome has been the creation of a world project in which all of humanity can contribute to change the earth we live on, creating prosperity, peace and healing for all that desire it.

Shelley Yates and her son, Evan, were drowned in 2002 when their car hydroplaned off the road, overturned, and sank to the bottom of a flooded marsh in Nova Scotia. Shelley was trapped in the car. A voice told her not to struggle or she would not be able to be revived when she would be rescued. She had never heard such a voice before this. She did not believe in God. She says of herself, "I was a 'diehard atheist'." Yet, she did not struggle, and she drowned. It was 15 minutes before she was rescued. After she was revived, she alerted the EMT's to find her son, who was age 4 at the time. Close to 30 minutes passed before he was pulled from the water. It took more time for the EMT's to get him breathing again. At the hospital, he was diagnosed as brain dead with non-viable organs, and given only 1% chance of surviving. However, Shelley was told by the voice that he would recover if many persons came and shared the energy of their auras for 20 minutes each.

Guest Biography:

As a couple, Robin and Joseph have been practicing Conscious Loving for ten years. Though they are polar opposites, they have become each other's greatest friends and together have experienced the deepest pain of separation.  Through a tenacious commitment to persevere and create Unity, inside and out, their marriage has become the catalyst for their Souls to awaken and heal.  Joseph and Robin have been blessed with three amazing children who have initiated them into a new form of parenting honoring the needs of each child's soul evolution.  Two of the children developed challenging physical/emotional conditions.  Robin and Joseph were shown that unconscious family dynamics, ancestral conditioning, and the Soul beliefs of the children needed to be transformed in order to create holistic healing miracles.  The whole family system evolved consciously to support the physical and behavioral changes.

Joseph has created several successful architecture and construction-related businesses, responsible for built projects totaling over $2 billion.  When he moved to Santa Fe in 1999, and immediately met Robin, he was ignited to pursue the multidimensional healing gifts that he maintained throughout his life.

As a trained architect and psychic, Joseph envisions the physical and finer bodies, Soul and Essence structures, and the organization of the Universe in architectural terms: interrelated systems of elements synergistically intertwined.  Joseph assists people to transform the structures of consciousness to allow them to create different realities.  He integrates dimensional DNA healings with grounded structural healing techniques.
