I was 18. It was the winter of my senior year of high school. I was sitting in my room hiding from the gray weather and my family. A voice spoke to me and said, "Go to the church," and told me to take my camera. I said no. It was cold, I didn't like … Continue reading The First Time God Ever Spoke to Me

Classes I’m Taking
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
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
Old Flat Lays

Stickers, sequins, feathers, rhinestones, thread etc. I have a ton of photos to choose from, but I don't think I have … Continue reading Old Flat Lays

Beautiful Day
Today is a gorgeous day. Warm air and sunny skies are lifting my spirit. I had a medical test this morning, and afterward I stayed up instead of curling up in bed. I've been cleaning the house, studying Arabic, and listening to linguistics lectures. I am hoping this means I am on an upswing and … Continue reading Beautiful Day
Abstract Creations
Today I did some therapeutic paintings and took some abstract photos. Abstraction is so freeing. I know I should learn to make more realistic art, but even when I am browsing in museums, the first art I'm drawn to is always the abstract stuff. I love the liberation of color and texture from reality. If … Continue reading Abstract Creations

Yesterday we went to a restaurant we won't have around any more when we move. We grabbed ice cream too. This coming week … Continue reading Sick Day
