SOCIAL MEDIA:

Instagram holds many seasons of my creative contemplation. It continues to be a place I share fresh paint & ink, and I'd be delighted to meet you there!

“I choose to inhabit my days, An homage to Ren’s favorite summer spot! “All creation is gifted with the ecstasy of [Holy Mystery]’s light.” —Hildegard of Bingen Before I went to bed last night, I saw a FB post from a friend in Milwaukee. She shared images of a huge tree that had just been downed by a storm. “[H]elp me see that faith is less about having the right answers at my fingertips than having a heart open enough to recognize grace when it comes—and trusting that even what looks like crumbs can be abundance.” —Kate Lasso “We are the love we give.” What gives life good bones? Make me a love song, A few days ago, Jim and I canoed the Mississippi backwaters at Blackhawk Park. It was August 2nd. The Bad Axe Massacre of 1832 occurred in this place on this day. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Bad_Axe
