Musings: A product of contemplation or meditation; thoughts; aimless and unsystematic.
I always begin my work with musings.
I am not sure that the work is so different from years past… what I am sure of is that I am different. I use the same techniques as always in a layered, lost and found way. My media continues to be mixed: watercolor, white acrylic, ink, lead and colored pencils. I like contrast, edge-to-edge interest, and a story: yours and mine. Mostly, I am absolutely in love with the mystery of inspiration and how it affects the process. I have a painting that is entirely different from the image with which I began.
It tells its own story!

The way that I am different at the moment is yet another layer of Being – as it is with all of us as we grow and age. I choose to be “in spirit” (inspiration) at all times. I pray for love and light each day. Previous to this time, I felt that it was a destination. But now, I believe (and I believe this for all) that it is a journey, the light and the love is in us all, all of the time, we just need to access it. It has been a subtle shift that I am celebrating.
