Yes I feel like holding on to the day a bit longer. Sunday always felt like a day to take time for myself, to recharge the senses, relax, create or do the things that make me feel whole again. Always a little sadness for me when wrapping up the day knowing Monday starts all over again. So for now I will enjoy the day.
Take time for yourself, do what makes you happy!
Moment taken as I gaze toward the sky
clouds catch my eye
Im lost in the ease of movement
effortless motion of forms
the wind whispers….
that is how you should move through life
The scary things that greet us in the dark..

“That pesky ghost was playing with my emotions all night.
I will just smile and wish it away.”
Doodling is habit forming. When the pen hits the paper, my eyes glaze over, the mind is in a trance, guided by the ink, wherever it takes me. Words, images start to appear sometimes on repeat and when its over I have something unique.

Celebrate! For anyone that supports, encourages and helps someone grow as a person.
We change.
When we are woven in life’s moments.. Caught.. We get tangled, we wiggle
slowly we stretch… Grow.. and learn to break free

I will be packing up my art from my little front room studio (aka spare bedroom) and heading out to sell my work at a public event for the first time.
Saturday June 13th at the Gloucester City Cultural Arts & Heritage Society, annual art festival in Gloucester, New Jersey.
After the event I will be placing available artwork for sale on my Etsy page.
We could all use an escape from realty if just for a moment or two. It would be a dream for me to create all the time, with no limits of thought or imagination. Creating anything and everything, my list of ideas are plenty (writing a book & song lyrics made the cut) The moment my pencil, or pen hits that white piece of paper I begin the journey inward. I burrow deep, discovering what plagues my heat or brings joy to my soul, it all filters out onto the page. I love making art and hope that my work can bring a little joy and inspiration to others.
