Morning Coffee
There is something so good about waking up and having the first cup of coffee. Oh wait, the coffee has lost its’ zing. Where is coffee that has the aroma and taste that it used to have? That’s disappeared but I still drink the coffee because of habit or lack of thought. Am I really…

Boundless Thoughts
I’m at a stage where I’m not bound up to useless thoughts but instead “Boundless Thoughts”. What a freedom that is! I’m looking at a picture of a nautilus shell that is not only beautiful but comes from the core and goes to infinity. As an artist I not only connect through my writings but…

Feelin Good?
Having been hard on myself all these years, I have a hard time discerning if I’m feeling good or if it’s my ego. Trusting myself and letting go is something that I’m growing into but it takes an awareness that at my age is a work in progress and a surprise. Awareness and deliberateness is…

Feeling like Indiana Jones
Being on this path of an artist is like feeling like Indiana Jones. I’m facing obstacles like it is an adventure and saying this is breathtaking but fun. That is the way I’m going to do what needs to get done and move on. Having the right spirit of adventure rather than dragging along I’m…

Loving What Is
Loving what is AND isn’t is a real test of my ability to be who I really am. I can hide behind all kinds of masks but being genuine at all times even to get hurt is the real test.Loving my art and putting it out there can be scary but knowing I’m doing my…

Pursuing an Art Life
Pursuing an Art Life is more that just making pictures or sculpture or whatever creative activity you do. I chose painting (I have done one sculpture on the right called “Warrior Woman”). It’s thinking better of myself and what worth I can bring to the table of the world. I’ve been given this desire and…

Pick & Choose
There are only so many hours a day and the energy to fill those hours. So I have to pick and choose what I’m going to accomplish. I’ve become a little more organized. By doing my cleaning on Saturdays , that takes it off my mind during the week so I can concentrate on my…

New Painting
Centering is the name of the painting on the right. The size is 36×12 acrylic on board and is priced at $1800. Now that the advertising is over, I’d like to talk about centering or focusing and making your work easier. With all the hoopla going around like TV, Computer, Cell Phone, IPOD’s, etc. I…
