Today I will allow kindness to me….

Today I will accept, receive and allow kindness to me. I know there is some redundancy in repeating with subtle word changes the same idea….if you are like me it is necessary! They say charity begins at home and we should love ourselves, so kindness that is for me should begin with me. Well today…

I heard my voice

Today is the day after I heard my voice on the radio… For a minute I wasn’t sure it was my voice but it was….It left me feeling vulnerable.

Words in Images

JOURNEY TO BEAUTIFUL…..

So exactly two years ago today I drew the lady in this picture. She in her tree lined way is going to be the cover to ‘journey to beautiful’. She was a moment of deep meaning, I was beginning to be able to breathe again in big breaths after my grand baby girl had passed…

Drawing in Circles

I have been drawing in circles lately…. One holding a smaller creation, holding a smaller creation. Or looking from in out it would seem that the image is expanding from an idea at the heart. Sometimes they feel like dream catchers, except I am awake as I fill the images into them and words of…
