Above my desk hangs a canvas that says, “Art surprises the artist.”
It’s a good mantra for me because within it comes a gut check, an artist’s examen.
This day’s memories are also a reminder of how much I enjoy inviting others, young and young-at-heart, into their creative expression.

“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.

I think 2016 was the year we went to Peru. Always brings back good memories. Shalom
