In my art journal, contemplating our role as a creative being ~






Living the Dream

I am the flickering fire that burns brightly within,
Shining like a vibrant star in the night sky.
I am the cat eyes that see the bigger picture,
Wisely guiding me through my life’s destiny.
I am the cosmos radiating its colorful display of art,
Beckoning my inner wolf to follow my fire in the darkness.
I am the full moon illuminating the shadows of mystery,
Pregnant with the promise of of a vision come true.
I am the woman who holds her blazing torch high,
Inspiring all to follow their heart and live their dream.

Our Earth and all life depending on it have suffered badly by our lack of compassion and responsible action. I created this painting above several years ago to address my care and concern for the alarming things happening to our natural world, which have the potential to severely disrupt life as we know it. Our earth is heating up to damaging temperatures, our waterways lack a purity that sustai

  Seeing With the Heart "Seeing with the Heart" © 2018                                     “In their innocence and wisdom, in their connection to the earth and its most ancient rhythms, animals show us a way back to a home they have never left.”       ― Susan Chernak McElroy,  Animals As Teachers And Healers Animals have always been our best teachers. They demonstrate how to live in harmony and balance with nature, the best ways of relating to other animals and, most of all, how to love. One of the best animal teachers of love that I have experienced is Helen, a blind buffalo who is a resident of Lighthouse Farm Animal Sanctuary in Scio, Oregon.     Helen and me exchanging a little love!

Helen really loved all the attention she received from us, as she kept nudging us for one more gentle scratching of her nose. It was such

  House of the Heart     “Under the Light of the Full Flower Moon”© 2020                                                             Under the Light of the Full Flower Moon As the big orange sun sets below the horizon, and the Flower Moon rises high in the sky, the ceremonial fire is lit. The drumming begins, breaking the evening silence, and you are called to a special place to be among women. You and all women are summoned to the sacred Tent of Red Thread, where you can sense the presence of an ancient energy as you walk slowly up the pathway leading to the entrance.   A winged woman greets you by name as you enter the red tent, and you walk around a circle of stones to find your place among this family of women.   When you look into the eyes of each woman in the circle, a remembrance within you begins to awaken a memory - one that has been waiting for a long time to be heard and felt. As the ball of red yarn is passed around the circle, each woman has an opportunity to speak of wha
