New Commissioned Work





I did a show in December, The Bainbridge Island Studio Tour, and sold some necklaces. My customer Carol, wanted me to make some matching earrings and bracelets to go with them. When I delievered them to her, she was very pleased. If she hadn't been, I would have been tempted to keep them...I really like them too! It's often so difficult to part with some pieces. I am so happy she loved freeform. It's my most favorite beading stitch!








Queen of Hearts Doll


I belong to Decidedly Different Art Dolls group on Yahoo and we are having a doll swap. The theme is Queen of Hearts. Here is my doll, the one I made for my swap that went out to Velia in California. I was pleased with her since she gave me lots of smiles while I was creating her and still every time I look at her.

Art is about the journey

I have embarqued upon a journey from which there is no return. I have heard and recognized an inner 'calling'...the voice of silent knowingness that comes from the depths of my being. I choose to honor my recognition of Divine Truth and direct my life to follow it.

Spiritual growth is not focused on a destination, but rather, on the journey itself.

My heart creates and my hands follow. If I walk in the awareness of my Light at all times, my presence will lift up those around me.

Art is about the journey.

New post for 2010

Wow, I haven't posted anything for a couple of months. Time is going so fast these days. I have been busy beading away since the holidays have come and gone. At the show I did in December, the Bainbridge Island Studio Tour, I sold two wonderful necklaces, the largest ones I had created and the woman that purchased them wanted me to make some matching earrings and a bracelet. So....I finally just completed the first set and now I am working on the second set. I'll post some pics once I finish the second set. It's nice to have some commission work. I am in gratitude. Thank you Carol!

The 12th prophecy of the Mayan prophecy:

"Your soul shall accept the truth and hold it in high esteem...
It will come to pass that you shall adore divine truth, and the government of our
ancestors will stand in readiness forever...
Only through the solar initiation can the sleeping body of mankind be awakened...
Let us prepare to see the light of knowledge that comes from Hunah K’a and transcend into the memory of the Creator and become beings of Eternal luminosity.”



In India, the symbol for the unfolding soul is the lotus blossom.
The lotus blossom does not fall out of the sky, it is born of the earth.
It rises up though the pond and opens to the light of the Sun. Such is life...
If past is a prologue, so should be our expectation.
2012 will not drop out of the sky, it will be the product of our own actions.
Now is the time to look and listen.
Simply live and know that growth comes in caring for others as if they are ourselves.

Attitude is Everything

Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle. Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly....Leave the rest to God. Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...It's about learning to dance in the rain.

Unknown

Bless you with the wisdom to be kinder than necessary.
Live simply, love generously - leave the rest to God.
Everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle, so be kinder than necessary.
Speak kindly, care deeply - leave the rest to God.
Storms there will be, and life is about learning to dance in the rain.

Your attitude is everything.
Over to you - work on that attitude.
Up your attitude quotient to faith, hope and optimism.
