"Every Artist is a Thief"

I believe everyone is an artist. The word "artist" has a lot of preconceived ideas locked behind it and keeps people from claiming that title. No matter what you are doing, it can be done with great creativity. One of the biggest things is finding that inspiration. Julia Cameron is famous for her, what she calls "Artist Dates" http://juliacameronlive.com/basic-tools/artists-dates. There is enough for everyone, and inspiration is everywhere ~ let yourself explore. Julia Cameron says "Artist dates are assigned play." I am guilty of not allowing myself more "time to play and get inspired" but with awareness comes change!

My Son...

This picture reminds me of my middle son, on this special day he turns twenty one.

~ Happy Birthday David ~

David asked a lot of questions about the world. He loved storms and anything having to do with the weather. We use to go frog hunting and nature walks. He loved mother nature! Later he became a writer and a self taught artist and is awesome at what he does. He is a quiet soul but has many passions that you only need to ask and he has much to say on the subjects. Making up a new kind of sandwich is always something he enjoys. 

You bring light and joy to my life everyday ~ you are loved my sweet David ~ love Mom : )
