The hardest part of artmaking is living your life in such a way that your work gets done, over and over… A piece of art is the surface expression of a live lived within productive patterns.
I had a lazy Saturday morning and did not get out for a
walk. So this afternoon I attached a fish eye lens to my iPhone and perused our

recall thinking my husband was being a bit optimistic when he planted what I
equated to a “dead stick” that had arrived via the US postal service. Now we
have a beautiful, tall flowering tree gracing our lawn. I never would have believed
