“…respectful hosting of the mysteries that surround us and ethical engagement with the earth and its inhabitants seems to be the only responsible reply to the forces that induced/birthed/foreknew(?) our presence.” —Barbara A. Holmes, Race and the Cosmos, p. 210

“Seven Years of Wonder” is a daily look back at my creative journaling posts since 2014. I began this journey on Feb. 11, 2021, and hope to continue through Feb. 10, 2022. What am I learning about my art and faith journey thus far? What has remained constant? Where have I been changed? How is this impacting present and future art-making?

A deep bow of gratitude to you for keeping me company on this journey.

For a reason I cannot fathom, the 2013 entry about a new shoot from the stump of Jesse seemed as if I had just seen it a day or two ago the memory was very fresh.

  If it crosses your path again, let me know, Jim. I’m curious now. 🙂
