Many things exerted an influence on me last month. A powerful call with my coach. Our new government’s actions. A big birthday on my horizon. A desire to GO FOR IT rose up in me that I couldn’t keep ignoring. It was clear that this is the time to really go for my big dreams.
I won’t share everything I am planning with you now. Okay, a sneak peek when you scroll down to the bottom of this article. But for now, let’s tay on this topic of how we actually make big changes.
Here’s my Big Dream that for years I have wanted, talked about, and never really done anything about: [Read more…] about A HIP plan for making a BIG DREAM real
Pattern Play in my Cup Series
Aerial View, 6″ x 6″ watercolor and ink on paper, 150/365 Cups. I love exploring pattern and have been having a blast riffing off of Jacqueline Groag’s amazing pattern designs. You can learn a lot by studying a master.

Friday Reads: This week's stack
This week’s stack of books. Yes I am reading all of these. There’s a whole other stack of books I’m not actually reading. In the stack you will see hints of where I am traveling this year, hints about an e-book I am writing and the art I am making, the novel of a friend, and a book related to my overall goal of thinking more creatively.
I am such a book glutton and love how the books I read change my life in such a direct way.
My favorite coffee drinks
8″ x 8″ watercolor, ink and marker on paper. I love all three of these coffee drinks. I believe each one of them has a specific amount and should be served in a specific kind of cup or glass. When somebody serves me a cappuccino in a giant bowl cup, it drives me crazy.
From my studio
Reading and getting ready for the day before jumping online to work. I like this way to orient myself to my work week. Lots of student and client time this week, and also working on my new e-book and art portfolio. I love the variety in my days. Here’s to a great Monday and a wildly creative week for all. 🌺
