The power to truly listen to that which wants to come through you can be a tough thing to accomplish. Life happens, distractions occur but finding a quiet spot to sit and let your mind wander works wonders…. When words find you in that space where your mind fades, magic happens. Sometimes we just need to get out of our own way.
Writing my morning pages brought forth this intuitive sketch..
Thank you for stopping by to view my work and videos..
my life on a string..
Drawing: Pencil and marker on paper.
Out of the shadow
light draws an appearance
brief inspiration
color vibrates
I see differently today
Placement makes all the difference. As shadows grew over the art, the light made its presence, it soaked upon my thoughts, sharing in words of inspiration today.

During our morning routine before school, my daughter asked me to write a poem. My first thought, I don’t have anything to write about. Then other thoughts followed..
I hear…… Unknown to me
the sound echos through the empty house
bang, clank shakes me awake
a ghostly presence of make believe
rooms filled with chatter
I try to muffle the noise
quiet restored
my mind is free
to dance around my thoughts
Crazy days, we work hard to keep balance only to feel like a juggling fool…..
Stop clowning around and go with the flow!

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

Creativity is electric, it is everywhere.
Grateful for the people who inspire everyday, make art and share their creations for everyone to see.

When I get lost in the craziness of the day I draw myself back to solitude. This sketch was inspired by the words that bounced through my mind today,

Its time to cultivate your inner garden to create space for new growth.
