New Years Day 2016

I have been incredibly moved by the support I have received from all of my readers.  Thank you.  
​

You Hold Me Up...

​
 First and foremost, I thank you for being on my team.   You have all inspired me to be better, more creative, more alive.  More than ever , I want to live the life that I am here to live.  To be as fully me as I can be. There are things I want in my life.   Many of them I have , some i do not  .  I want them all.  That is all the ones anyway,  that are especially important to me.  
Today I hiked in the snowy blue sunshine that is so Colorado.  It has been COLD.  I have had a bit of cabin fever and it is early in the winter.  I then cleaned out my studio ( which has been a disaster) and cleaned my palette as I listened to Elizabeth Gilbert's . Big Magic . on audible.  I love her!  The book i finished today was also written by her , The signature of all things.  I loved that book!  Anyway, in Big Magic, she talks about making things, creating things.   She talked about when you are not feeling inspired, at least be curious.  She talked about curiosity and it's important relationship to inspiration and creativity.  


And she talked about pushing forward, despite the fact that you are not feeling inspired.  Her story telling is magical to me.  My little synopsis here does not do her work one ounce of justice.    It is time now after the holiday to return to my daily practices.

 Today , as i was cleaning my studio , I came across this photo ,  It is a classic.  I framed it a few years ago. I am not a true collector of things unless they have real meaning .  This does.  It is my grandma dorothy and my grandpa Joe.  They were life changers for me.  They are my heritage.   They are now with me on the walls of my studio.   My ancestors are cheering me on. We all need that don't we?  The memories of my times with them are engraved in my DNA.  For them, I give thanks.  

For 2016, I wish you love, health , vitality and adventure.   May we all live creative and loving lives.  It all starts with looking in the mirror.  

Goin painting...


Happy New Year !!  I love you all.  My hope is that you are curious about something today.
