How important are your feelings?

I created this painting to remind me that what you send
out is most important, and it all starts with your feelings.














"Feelings Are Key"
Sold to private collector

It is very important what type of energy you radiate.
When things are going bad, your vibe changes and
you may notice that more bad things come your way.

Now, the same is true when you have great wonderful
things happening in your life. When this happens you
send out positive energy.

Enjoy and appreciate it, you will receive
more of it.

One of the Most Powerful Techniques in the World for Abundance!

As a spiritual artist, one never stops learning the ways of life. A friend of mine
shared this site with me, The powerful method shared here is one that I have seen shared in many other ways but it it is basically the same.
It is very simple to do, but you must remember to do it as often as possible.

How do you attract to your life what you want? what is this technique?

It is a secret which has been given to humanity over and over again,
and here it is once more in another form. The secret is this:

Bless everyone and everything that represents what you want!

I have heard this many, many times. It is recently that I understand and feel it
deep in me. Learn the mechanics of this by going here

Remember, keep it in mind and use it.

Many Blessings to you.

Inspirational Quote of the Day

"Until you value yourself, you won't value your time.
Until you value your time, you will not do anything with it."

Facebook has a Face Lift

Today I logged in to my Facebook account, and it now has a an
option to view your profile in a new layout.

I'm not sure if I like it yet, but it has a "Back to the old Facebook"
if you don't feel it.

By the way I added my badge to my blog. You have the
options of having things like you latest pictures or websites on
your FB badge. For artist marketing art online, this could be used
as a way to show your art in a small place, like a mini art gallery.

Best of all it's FREE way to promote your art online. I use it to
promote my inspirational and spiritual art, so get in there.

P.S. don't forget to ad me as a friend....

Just Stop It Already!

Are you feeling fearful about the state of the economy and
sky-high gas prices, and how they are affecting your creative
and artistic pursuits?

Here's an inspiring, in-your-face message from Joe Vitale that
might shake some sense into you.

Joe Vitale is an Internet marketing guru who now weaves a lot of spiritual
and positive thinking messages into his work. He was one of the teachers
featured in the book/movie The Secret.

Here's an email Joe sent out....

_______________________________________

Stop it!

Stop paying attention to the media.

Stop paying attention to the doom and gloom of anyone and
everyone around. Stop getting sucked into being a victim.

STOP IT.

You won't go anywhere buying into the cultural trance that there
isn't enough and times are tough.

You won't accomplish your big goals, or do anything of real greatness,
as long as you give in to outer circumstances.

You have to take back your power.

You have to take back your control.

You have to "awaken."

Recently I told a woman who was interviewing me that I was homeless
and in poverty only as long as I stayed stuck in survival "thinking."

As soon as I put my mind on what I "wanted" to have instead,
I began to shift and get better results.

This can happen for you, too. It took me ten years. You can do
it in one weekend.

But you have to stop listening to the media paint a picture of darkness.

The media paints it by finding something dark to report on, whether
it's true or not. You and others listen to it, believe it, and before you
know it, you have "created" what the media painted.

They predict a recession before there actually is one.

But people believe the media, fall into fear, stop spending,
and suddenly a recession is here.

This has to stop. And it can stop right now.

Break free from money worries.

Break free from job worries.

Break free from health worries.

Break free from love worries.

Break free -- PERIOD.

My painting "The Christ" is going to get more views

Hello many friends.

I have been traveling lately, and will be back in
action in the middle of next week. I am blessed

you more spiritual and inspirational art.

that I am in a position to reach more people

You might ask why are you so happy Pete?

very happy to see that more people will see
my "The Christ" painting.

How can I say that? Well, if you do a Google
search for "Spiritual Art For Sale", I am on the
first page four times. What is going to touch
someone looking for spiritual art for sale to
click on my painting, is that on that Google
search my painting has a small thumbnail
on the search results. It Stands Out!

We are visual beings, we think in pictures and
more people are going to click on my small
thumbnail because it's just easier.
To see what I'm talking about, go here.

I wanted to share this with you because this is
no accident. Here on my blog I try to plant in you
the idea that you need to invest in yourself. Not
only spiritualy, but in your skill and knowledge.

It does not matter what you do, you are either
evolving or you are wilting away. Reconnect with
your dreams and start investing in YOU.

Spiritual Quote of the Day

"Whatever you cannot enjoy doing, you can at least accept that
this is what you have to do. Acceptance means: For now, this is
what this situation, this moment, requires me to do, and so I do
it willingly."

--Echkart Tolle

Quote of the Day

"Vengeance is having a videotape planted in your soul that
cannot be turned off. It plays the painful scene over and over
again inside your mind...And each time it plays you feel the
clap of pain again...Forgiving turns off the videotape of pained
memory Forgiving sets you free."

--Lewis Smedes



Remember, you can change your mind, your emotions will
follow and your outcome will change.

New Visionary and Spiritual Art Video "The Christ"

I'm very happy with this new video I just posted.
You can Click Here to go to it or, just view it
at the end of this post.

This painting is about being able to connect to the
Christ Consciousness, or some might also refer to it
as the Universal Mind. Many other names also, but what
matters is the connection you can have with it.

Many layers I have in this energy I call the painting of
"The Christ". I invite you to relax and listen to the
music in the background and connect.

We are One......

This Can Inspire Years of Art Work

Maybe even lifetimes. Every time I see images from space
I am humbled by what it means to be alive, to live in the moment.

I get so inspired and whispers of truth are given to me.
These images give me MORE so I can give MORE through my
visionary and spiritual art.


I hope you enjoy these images and they touch you as much as they do me.

Ever heard of Pecha Kucha?

I just joined this group because it is an event that supports others
It's very interesting, here is the breakdown.

The idea behind Pecha Kucha is to keep presentations concise,
the interest level up and to have many presenters sharing their
ideas within the course of one night.

Therefore the 20x20 Pecha Kucha format was created:
each presenter is allowed a slideshow of 20 images,
each shown for 20 seconds.

This results in a total presentation time of
6 minutes 40 seconds on a stage before the
next presenter is up.

I Changed the HTML code in my Blog, Now I have a NEW LOOK!

Never stop learning, today I changed the layout of my blog
without uploading a new layout. Huh? yes, all I did was change
the html codes to make it a three column blog.

I think it was easier than: saving my original blog file, then
uploading a new template, and then re-doing my links and page
elements, or maybe save my widgets. Tooooo much.

I think it now has a better feel to it. I like the way my
visionary and spiritual art blog is comming along.

Notice there is free art for you, check it out.

This is the painting style for my Wife's painting

Here is the painting style my wife wants for her painting.
I'm looking forward to becoming that painting.

I like the colors and tones, I'm feeling it.....
The process has started. (smile)

I will post a sketch of what my painting will be with this style soon.

Preparing to do a painting of the Not Visionary Kind

My wife has asked me to do a painting for her.
The type of style she wants is not the kind
of visionary or spiritual art I usually paint.

Being a student of art marketing, I have read
many, many times that one should find a style
and stay with it.

As an artist I do like to do other type or art.
With that being said, I would like to be know for my
versatility as an artist as well.

It would be a shame that an artist or a person
should live their life to uphold a certian label.
I live and paint to expand my mind and my spirit.

Yes, I will enjoy creating something for my wife.

Quote of the day

"If you don't get what you want, you suffer; if you get what you don't want, you suffer; even when you get exactly what you want, you still suffer because you can't hold on to it forever. Your mind is your predicament. It wants to be free of change. Free of pain, free of the obligations of life and death. But change is a law, and no amount of pretending will alter that reality."

---Dan Millman

Creating a Visionary Painting from my Logo

As you may know, I am a Graphic Designer. I help marketers
brand themselves by creating unique "Make You Want To
Click On My Profile" Images, logos and graphics. I am happy
to provide my design skills to help marketers make an
impact on all the web 2.0 sites used

As a spiritual and visionary artist, I had the toughest time
creating my personal logo. I am my own worst critic. But
I feel like the end results is great.

The whole idea for my logo was to take my initials from my
name. The letters P J and T and create a graphic that made you
look, and hinted of my visionary and spiritual sight. Also at the
same time looking cool.

On the side of my website you will see my Pete Taboada logo.
Now, I have been getting little whispers that thell me to make a

painting out of my logo. I have been thinking about this little pull,
so I will start feeling it out. All I have to do is trust self.

FREE Visionary and Spiritual Art

There is a catch (wink), in return for the free art please

See details at the top of my blog.

We are all here to share. We all inspire each other.

Here is the video LIVE!......

"Within" Painting with music from Creed

I was inspired to create a video  with my "Within" painting. 

I connect with the group Creed. the song "Are You Ready" 

resonates well with the energy and feeling of my painting.

It's my first video with a painting so I would love your comments.

check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8V4ruRcOUs

Till next time.

I have Audio today!

On this blog I wanted to share more than my art. Today I'm able
to share the energy of my voice with you. I am a little on the shy
side, but I AM a work in progress. I AM evolving and becoming
the person who I need to be.


Do not let something like shyness stop you from
reaching your dreams and goals!

Little things like this will deprive us from knowing what you
have to share. The worst part is, it will deprive and stop you
from your dreams.

Don't let anyone dictate who you are. (wink)

My first post

Welcome to my blog! I'm happy to be able to have this site
to help me communicate what I do with the world. I will be
posting such things as why I do a certain painting, things
that I do or study to grow as a person.


The reason for me doing this is that I have been led to this
path all my life. Listening from within I now share my love
and energy with YOU.
