Filling the Well 10-2011

Last weekend we took time off to go camping. A short break but such a needed one! I spent some of the time just sitting and studying the effects of light on water. I want to take my meditation panels to the next level with more complex color and design. We know that 'grasshoppers' are learners.....I do my best to always be open to learning from nature, other artists...or any source that presents itself.

We were very lucky to have an east facing camping spot. I simply got up way before sunrise, just sitting and absorbing all that was offered to me..Out of the hundreds of photos I took over the weekend this one is possibly my favorite. I love the muted colors and soft edges.... I am not sure 'how' this time out will connect to my work...but 'filling the well' is a necessary aspect of my connection to my art.

I finished several new pieces just before the mini-vacation. Wish I could share them all with you...so stop by the studio some day...let's have tea and chat...love and light surround you....
