Threshold

Opportunities to chose a new way
enter an open door
appear before us
daily

Treasure

The gifts of summer are abundant
May the warmth and peace of
woodland nights
soothe all wounded hearts

Green is the Color

This summer is one of the greenest.
Beautiful, calming and inspiring
Here is a green view from my mountain studio
and a view of Chrissie guarding the green
doorway in Port Salerno
om ah hung hri

Reflection

Just sharing here some colors
Inside and out.
One is the sunset on Pinelake,
the other a new warp on the loom
in Port Salerno.

Dakini Day

Just sharing two images on this seventh day of the New Year
An inner view of my studio, just before years end
And an outer view, of the marina at sundown

Sending the sun to light up every heart

Painted World

View of my painting studio in Willow.
The end of a season and beginning of a painting on the easel.
A giant pearl about to roll in.
A gift, to follow the hours of delight
basking in the creative energy
emerging from the mountain light 

Acknowledgement

Every now and then its important to acknowledge a job well done. Could even be our own work !
Presently I would like to acknowledge a job well done by my friend Frank Rocamora of Port Salerno, Florida.  A life long fine carpenter, Frank created this beautiful circular wooden display for the front window of my gallery/studio space at the Fish House.  It is a masterpiece.  This photo shows Frank with his work before it was installed. It is perfect, and with much urging on my part,  Frank signed it underneath.  It is a gift of generosity of spirit as well, which also deserves acknowledgment.

So if you happen to notice this piece in my window, you will know its one of a kind, made by someone who is willing to take the time do make something beautiful, just for its own sake.
Thank you Frank.
