Bookmarking Joy in December, 4
It is my great grand good fortune to participate in a yoga class that nourishes me week after week, a class I bumped into in the unlikeliest of ways. That story: had a mammogram a few years back. Results not definitive. Had to have a repeat done at a different facility. Met afterwards with ‘my’… Continue reading

My Story
In 2014, I grab an unexpected opportunity to paint.
To make art.
I get hooked.
In 2015 I start a blog—a diary of my life as an artist.
I post my paintings and their stories. The good, the bad, the ugly.
My compass points: bust through fear, be playful, get messy, trust my gut.
