I'm so happy! I found a course to listen to online about art therapy. I found another on pressed flowers and floral art. Then I found one on honing your photography style and another on abnormal psychology that will pair nicely with the art therapy class. One day, if I enjoy it, I might get … Continue reading Classes I’m Taking

Dream
I woke up at 3 am with a headache and nausea. After drinking a lot and taking headache medicine I was able to get back to sleep. Then I woke up half an hour early from a dream. In the dream, I used tubes of watercolor on tissue paper to make something layered and beautiful. … Continue reading Dream
Wet Day
I am inside today, not exactly enjoying the weather. The snow flurries have been lovely, but nothing is sticking, so it's really just a wet, cold day. I am not well today. It's been a long week. I just wanted to share some abstract photos of light that I took this afternoon! I love light … Continue reading Wet Day
Daily Beauty
I have not slept much in a couple of days, so I'm not feeling well. But I got an issue of Artful Blogging I ordered off Amazon, and it has reminded me to enjoy the beauty of my everyday life. Here is some tulle currently bunched up in my upstairs studio. I think it looks … Continue reading Daily Beauty
Seminary Reading
I discovered a website where the seminary program in Media and Worship Arts that I've longed to go to for years lists their syllabi. I am going from class to class, finding the required reading, and adding it to my Amazon. So much fascinating material on the intersection of Christianity and creativity! Reading these books … Continue reading Seminary Reading
It’s a Beautiful Life
Today I am taking some time to get out my new gel pen set and journal. I decided that what this blog needs is more pretty pictures...and raw, honest pictures too. But life at home is beautiful, and I want to savor every moment.

I will vote and make a difference where I can, but losing sleep over it just leaves … Continue reading Stepping Back From the News
Joy, Nonfiction
Just wanted to say hi. I feel so much joy. I've been praying more, and the Holy Spirit has been speaking to me. I have also been reading a book about creative nonfiction called "Bending Genre." I love it. This book is opening me up to so many possibilities. Docupoetics is one I'm interested in. … Continue reading Joy, Nonfiction
Sick
I still have some nausea and vomiting, plus I have come down with a respiratory cold. Needless to say, I am not at my best. But while my body is tired, my mind is very much awake. I dropped my daughter off at school, and I put together a huge grocery order for pickup. I … Continue reading Sick
Hospital, Photography,and Paintings
On Friday, I was in bad pain all morning, and then I kept vomiting until I got dizzy and fell. My husband took me to the ER, and they admitted me overnight. From what the Dr said, the throwing up every day I've been doing for a few months because of a medicine I have … Continue reading Hospital, Photography,and Paintings
