#mushroomcafe

Here is my latest little contribution to the “Mushroom Cafe” at @chapelofsacredmirrors ! Just a small portrait of my good old friend David the gnome, showing some love to a fun-guy. He is the 3rd being I’ve painted on the magical mushy landscape that my friend @burgandyviscosi created, happy to keep adding to our collaboration there. David is a little gnome that my ex-wife @valerie_tasherit lent me, cause he likes to travel. Here some of the many pics I have of him cruising the planet (Peru, Russia, Thailand, Nepal, Cuba, Hungary and the Grand Canyon. #davidthegnome #gnome #mushroomcafe #mushroom #magicmushrooms #shrooms (at COSM Chapel of Sacred Mirrors) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwj__T3gE7_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2uied9ah31xk

I love collaboration for how it challenges one to step beyond ones own vision and enter into dialogue with another or others to create something greater. . This photo is a throwback to painting with @allysongreycosm and @alexgreycosm in the Mushroom Cafe circa 2012 at @chapelofsacredmirrors 💫 We’re painting on the mural that @jonessjonez started and we continued to collaborate on. Over the years the whole cafe has become a unique jewel with contributions by @markhensonart @randalrobertsart @michael_divine @aloriaweaver @davidheskinart @krystleyez @perrykroeger @chris_dyer @burgandyviscosi @jonathan_solter @xavi_panneton and more... photo by @jonohia 🙌💓🎨 . . . #collaboration #visionaryart #visionaryartists #mushroomcafe #chapelofsacredmirrors #alexgrey #allysongrey (at COSM Chapel of Sacred Mirrors) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu-QbyMBAmN/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=onemuza5u7xn

This year was my 5th time painting on the walls of their Mushroom Cafe at @chapelofsacredmirrors , which is the biggest Visionary Art collaboration that I know of. 24 master painters have contributed on this stunning environment and it’s an honor to keep adding my spice to that soup. My original piece there was the “mushroom muncher” who sat inside of a magical landscape created by my friend @burgandyviscosi . This time I returned to that kingdom and added a second mushroom muncher, but in a more advanced part of his activation process. Stoked how he came out and that I was able to birth him in only 2 days. Always happy to be of service to this lovely spiritual art community, by donating my time and soul expression to something I believe in (art as a spiritual practice to heal humanity). 🙏💚 #mushroomcafe #mushrooms #mushroom #gnome #muncherofmushroomland #shrooms #activation #trippedout #service #grateful #cosm #chapelofsacredmirrors #alexgrey #allysongrey (at COSM Chapel of Sacred Mirrors)

Another view into the #mushroomcafe at @chapelofsacredmirrors ... got to add some extra strokes while Perry worked on his piece:) here you get a view of the upper realms with @chris_dyer @krystleyez @markhensonart @xavi_artist @burgandyviscosi @jonathan_solter @alexgreycosm #visionaryart (at COSM Chapel of Sacred Mirrors)

As I continue my art-filled days at @chapelofsacredmirrors I am back at the #mushroomcafe adding on to this creature for the 3rd year. By now he's grown into the ceiling making it more complicated on my neck to paint this! But I'm always up to a new challenge and having my friend @alexgreycosm stop by for a chat is always such a pleasure! #ceilingart #painting #scafolding #dontfallback #alexgrey #cosm #chapelofsacredmirrors (at COSM Chapel of Sacred Mirrors)

Here I am painting the Entheon Museum from the modeled sketch on a wall of the Mushroom Café at CoSM @chapelofsacredmirrors a couple years ago. . I painted a story of the future, of visions being built now and even grander visions of the Peace Train carrying all the tools to build an epic expo of regenerative culture making a stop near by. . The mycelium web of the visionary realm is around us all the time. It’s up to us to make ourselves available to it and then do the work to bring it into being. It’s work folks, there’s no way around it. So stop making excuses for why you are not good enough or there isn’t enough time and start prioritizing what you deem as truly important🙌 . Every day is a new beginning and a new opportunity to step up to the plate of your dreams💫 .

This is how my wall/ceiling acrylic painting ended up at the #mushroomcafe at @chapelofsacredmirrors . I worked on it for 3 days a year, for 3 years. #ceilingart #cosm #chapelofsacredmirrors #acrylic #painting #mushroom #visionaryart #psychedelicart (at COSM Chapel of Sacred Mirrors)
