with love

This month is really special for me and our islands as the current issue of National Geographic Magazine features our little sandbar - in a visual love letter written and photographed by my father-in-love David Alan Harvey.

Circumnavigating the globe, and my navel...

Sometimes you must travel all around the world to realize you are home...

Trying on a new attitude with the tax-man this year...

Again and again I would try something new, obsess about it briefly, discover I sucked at it, and abandon it. Hence a long, long, long line of incomplete dreams trailing behind me like discarded toys in the wake of a toddler.

 
Etsy and Squam are two sides to the same coin. We may be coming at it from different angles, but we both seek happiness for artists. Whether that means creative success or financial success...it's ultimately about doing what you love, what makes you happy.

I'm just a country mouse heading to the big city! 

signs of spring are more subtle here at the beach where our dominant colors are the tan of sand and bodies, and the blue of sky and water. green sometimes feels like an afterthought...yellow, a bit of frosting.

The real thing for me is not only has it made me a better photographer, but it has helped me to appreciate the life i've created...

Then the sunshine called me outside for coffee...and little Eli was restless with wandering, as was the cat. So off we all went...

The things that are most essential for big ideas aren't going to look productive. So, in other words, go take a nap or find another way to relax! According to Jonah Lehrer, this is essential...so yay for artist dates and daydreaming!

Come reconnect to the creative, rhythmic, dancing being within you!

beauty, travel, a gorgeous film and a love story...

Everything in its perfect time. Everything is unfolding. And, I am enjoying where I am now, in relationship to where I am going. Content where I am and eager for more.
