a 2015 calendar! now taking pre-orders!

hello, lovelies!  it's been a while.  i really, really need to create time in my daily living for this blog.  while i'd hoped the new site would be up and running at this point, these things have a time of their own.  even so, i'm happy you're here and i'll show up a little more often, too.  

new. new. new.  

pre-order your 2015 wall or desk calendar.  

these will be printed on 100 pound bright white cougar paper.  each design varies throughout your calendar and you'll receive an undated wisdom print, too.

these will ship before thanksgiving.  when you order using the etsy payment option in the shop, your card shouldn't be charged until your order is mailed from what i understand.  ((please let me know if i'm incorrect!))

peace and light to you and yours, lovelies.  

colors of my day: 4.4.2013.

color play. watercolor squares.

going to be playing with more like these, adding some fun inks inside.  

i love the way this turned out.  

a piece of washi tape on an inspiration board or wall.  

perfection. 

what do you think? 

colors of my day: 1.19.2013.

in the studio: works in progress.

infinitely valuable. a wisdom original.

a word of wisdom received by a dear one.  

a friend of hers who is a friend of mine asked me to create 

a custom wisdom original honoring the word she received.

i love the unexpected blending of colors as it was created.  as it turns out, it's just right.  

wisdom.  pure wisdom.  

i practice wisdom by listening each day.

 i love the unexpected.  a good word.  a kind note.  a gift. 

 a smile shared.  tea poured. stories spoken.

 all of the above. 

packaged for the dear one.  

know your goodness. ((all the way to your toes.)). xo.

a handy list of resources ((to the left)): my amazon affiliate window.

on the left sidebar you'll notice a bunch of fun books & materials i recommend.  often when i lead retreats and workshops i'm creating lists for folks to take home and search for.  now i'll add those to this little amazon affiliates window so all of you can find them.  i hope that you enjoy visiting the list and selecting what will bring you creative delight!

life stories: a scene of illustration work.

i love, love, love a creative challenge.  i love being asked to help others with a short deadline.  somehow i fit that gap pretty well and can usually make a tight deadline.  here you see a scene of an illustration project in process.  i'll share the completed project when the article's officially published online.  i'm tickled pink when opportunity + desire + skill lines up so well.  through this process, i questioned my work, asking if i was on the right track.  the questions are part of the creative process.  i must stop & look. listen to myself and listen to the creative spirit.  then. then. everything comes together and is affirmed.  

what a glorious gift.

inspiration: no. 1

landscapes inspire me.
